NOTE: For booking information, please send us a message!
In this workshop, Mike will demonstrate the use of bellows, forge, anvils, tongs, and more. Participants will have the opportunity to assist him in forging a feather coat hook to take home. You'll be able to swing the hammer, operate the bellows. For any tasks you're not comfortable with, Mike will take over, allowing you to observe as your creation comes to life.
Safety is our top priority: we will provide safety equipment including eye protection, a leather apron, and leather gloves. Participants are required to wear long pants, a long-sleeved shirt, and closed-toe footwear.
Here at True Serendipity Homestead we have decided to put the 50 plus years of life experience to good use by making available, our art and skills, by teaching others what we have learned. Michael will be offering blacksmith items, wildlife photographs, and workshops in this store. Cheryl will be offering her paintings and workshops.
True Serendipity Homestead,
Great people & experience. Mike & Cheryl have a great spot that they are so kind to share with us, their serendipitous story about how they came to be here in Maine is an excellent one - thank you for being a great example for how to create your own journey!
The highlight of our trip to Maine! We truly happened upon this place - we were up a creek realizing too late that all the other campsites in Acadia were closed for the season. As the name suggests, our time at True Serendipity made our entire trip - it was serendipity at its finest. Mike and Cheryl were lovely, kind hosts - and have thought of all the details. My son and I enjoyed a canoe paddle in the early light on the peaceful pond; a campfire under the stars (with wood thoughtfully left out for us); and most of all a blacksmithing workshop with Mike, who is a fabulous teacher and gave us both an unforgettable experience. I can't recommend enough that you make this a part of your trip - it was a highlight of our time in Maine.
