The workshop in detail

  • 1d
  • 1 to 3 participants
  • 11 years min.
  • The workshop begins with an introduction to the space and a warm welcome from Philip. You'll learn about his background and expertise, setting the scene for an inspiring day.

    Safety is paramount, so the next step is a comprehensive health and safety briefing. Philip will guide you through the essential precautions to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.

    Next you'll be introduced to the various tools you'll be using throughout the workshop. Philip will provide demonstrations and hands-on practice to help you feel comfortable and confident with each tool.

    The main cutting technique you'll learn is plasma cutting. Philip will show you how to use this powerful tool to shape your metal pieces with precision and creativity. You'll then be introduced to MIG welding, the main welding technique used in the workshop. Under Philip's expert guidance, you'll learn how to fuse your metal pieces together to bring your sculpture to life.

    After a morning of learning and practising, it's time for lunch.

    Refreshed and ready to go, you'll spend the afternoon designing and creating your own sculpture. With Philip's guidance, you'll use the skills you've learnt to create a unique piece of art. He'll be there every step of the way to offer tips, advice and encouragement.

    At the end of the workshop you'll have a finished sculpture to take home!
