​This is not a ticketed course. It is an intro artistic welding course meant to challenge students in the fascinating world of metalworking. All sessions of Artistic Welding cover the above techniques, enabling participants to heighten their skill levels with imaginative projects.

The low student-to-teacher ratio in each course ensures instruction is geared to the participant’s skill level and experience. Please indicate your related experience when you register.

Rich will offer a choice of 5 or 6 pre planned projects to choose from that will cover all the basic skills, encouraging students to leave with the knowledge and confidence to expand their creativity further outside the classroom.
