Event Description
The two separate pewter casting workshops will be led by Tabitha Frost who is an award-winning metal smith. She is trained in a range of metal work and Silversmithing techniques.
This workshop will give you experience in a time served technique producing fantastic tactile results. It is a great way to experience pewter in both a molten and solid form.
You will be getting hands on in making moulds and pouring liquid pewter to make you own original objects. As well as experimenting with different casting techniques and metal working tools to learn some of the different techniques used in metal work, there will be the option to personalise your cast
pieces.
You will leave having experimented and handled different tools and equipment and will have made your own individually designed and cast pewter piece of work.
This workshop is part of a series of 5 artist led
funded by the Art’s Council Lets Create Jubilee fund from Cambridgeshire Community
Foundation - ensuring that creativity plays an important role in local community celebrations for
Her Majesty The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
All of the works made will be kept in Adams to go on exhibition on Friday 3 June, after which they will be returned to the maker.
