Saturday, March 31, 2018 | 12 – 5pm

Join us this Spring for a taste of what you can create in the fine and industrial arts! With inspiring and educational demonstrations in nineteen of our departments, including Neon, Ceramics, Glass Blowing, Blacksmithing, Welding, and more, you will walk away with greater knowledge of how to get started on your next creative pursuit. Explore unique local art in our carefully curated Crucible Art Gallery, enjoy delicious beer from Old Kan Beer & Co, then take a break outside, snacking on Jamaican cuisine from one of our local food truck vendors. And make sure to come ready to register for classes, taking advantage of $25 off every Crucible class!

This event is free and open to the general public. All are welcome! However, parents of small children will need to pay special attention, as our studio space does have some rough edges.
