Travel back in time and immerse yourself in the ancient craft of blacksmithing. Join us on Thursday, June 3, for a live blacksmith demo in Vizcaya Village, where the estate’s own historic blacksmith shop is located. “The Guild: Urban Craft and Folk Art School” will be with us to lead the demo and discuss the history of the craft as well as take a look at how Vizcaya’s blacksmith shop has evolved.
As if an active forge isn’t cool enough, this will also be a 360* experience, adding an interactive element to the demo. Save the date and click below to watch the sparks fly LIVE!
