Hammered Copper Bowls with Stone Tools, with Martha Buche

JOIN WAITING LISTS:

Using the warm, red metal my Bodewadmi (Potawatomi) relatives call “miskwabik
(copper) and basalt hammer stones from the shores of G’chi gamii (Lake Superior), we will
hand-forge bowls on wooden stumps. In a process called “sinking”, or hammering on the inside, we will anneal the metal in a wood fire and form our richly colored, beautiful vessels using the power of our own muscles. Come join us in this elemental journey of copper, fire, water, and stone.
