SUMMARY:Tool Tales in the Artifact Lab
DESCRIPTION:If you’ve ever wondered about a specialty tool from your grandfather’s workshop\, an interesting one you found at a yard sale or simply want to learn more about the tools in your collection\, this event is for you. Our panel of knowledgeable CRAFTS of NJ (Collectors of Rare and Familiar Tool Society of NJ) volunteers will be in the ArtifactLAB helping to identify tools from the museum’s collection but will also volunteer their time to carefully examine the items you bring in\, helping you uncover the stories behind them. \n\n\n\nLearn about the origins of our tools and/or yours\, who crafted them\, where they were made\, and the ways they were used throughout history. With decades of combined experience\, they will also offer insights into the broader history of craftsmanship and how these tools fit into the larger family of hand tools. \n\n\n\nWhile our panel isn’t made up of certified appraisers\, they can provide you with an informed estimate of each tool’s potential value\, based on their extensive knowledge and hands-on experience. Whether you’re curious about a rare item or simply passionate about the art of craftsmanship\, Tool Tales promises an afternoon of learning\, sharing\, and discovering the fascinating world of tools!

SUMMARY:Blacksmith School
DESCRIPTION:Blacksmith School at the Red Mill Museum Village offers a small-group\, hands-on introduction to the craft\, history and techniques of traditional blacksmithing. Designed for beginners\, this two-session course combines historical context with practical skill-building in an authentic working forge. \n\n\n\nLed by experienced blacksmith Ivan Raupp\, students will learn the fundamentals of working with iron\, including how to build and manage a coal fire\, identify forging temperatures by color and safely use essential tools such as the anvil\, hammer and tongs. Instruction focuses on the four foundational blacksmithing techniques—drawing out\, upsetting\, bending and twisting—which form the basis of most forged objects. Participants will also explore the historical role of blacksmiths and the production and properties of iron in early America. Each student will make a hook of their own design to take home.
