The blacksmith will be working in the museum on Sunday. He also runs classes in copper work which is suitable for all ages as the work is done cold with very small hammers. Simple rings are a great child project ($5) up to complex brackets and flowers which cost more. Anzac Day has been but the components will be there to make poppies out of steel ($20) as well as some already made are still available. Again all cold work but more suitable for teenagers and adults.

Although the weather was inclement, it was sorely needed. However, the vibe all day was really very pleasant and Visitors had a lot to look at and listen to. The Samford Singers also entertained with Anzac themed songs. Thank you to all those who braved the rain for the Ceremony and for visiting the Samford Museum.

Normally the blacksmith would be at the museum this Sunday but being Easter Sunday family commitments take precedence. So I will be at the museum the following Sunday the 12th April.
