Alaskan Metal Art Workshop

Unleash your creativity and capture the essence of Alaska in our special metal art excursion, a unique 2.5-hour experience in the picturesque port of Sitka, Alaska. This class is perfect for adventurers who want to engage in a hands-on activity that blends art and the awe-inspiring Alaskan landscape. Your artistic journey begins with a safety and project overview, ensuring a fun and secure experience. Under the guidance of skilled instructors, you'll learn to use a 2-inch die grinder to smoothly texture a piece of cold rolled steel. Feel the thrill of making sparks fly as you gear up with all the provided safety equipment, transforming a dull gray steel piece into a shimmering masterpiece. The excitement continues as you shape your metal salmon or halibut using a teardrop mallet, creating a 3D artwork complete with flapping tails and gills. This hands-on approach brings your Alaskan salmon to life, ready to adorn any wall with its authentic charm. But the magic doesn't end there. You'll heat things up with a propane torch, bringing out stunning hues of bronze, purple, and blue from the steel. This process not only adds color but also ensures your fish is a one-of-a-kind Alaskan keepsake, as thrilling as the views of Sitka Sound. Throughout the class, you'll immerse yourself in discussions about local salmon species, fishing techniques, and metal finishing processes. Here's your chance to take home an amazing catch from Alaska that you'll cherish forever. Book now for a unique opportunity to capture the Alaskan spirit through art, all from the heart of Sitka's beautiful port.
