Hey folks, my name is Adam Kenney and I am the Executive Director of Touchstone Center for Crafts in Farmington, PA. Touchstone is a residential craft school located in the Laural Highlands. We operate over eight studios in various craft forms, but our flagship studio is definitely the Hart Moore Blacksmith Studio. It's one of the most comprehensive facilities in the region dedicated to the art ans science of moving hot metal. I started last July and am looking for ways to make Touchstone a more valuable resource for blacksmiths in the region (and beyond). I will be posting links to workshops and special events we have coming up in 2012. Since I Forge Iron is such a popular and visible online platform to talk about all things blacksmithing I thought it might be a good fit. Go to www.touchstonecrafts.org to check the place out, or click here to look at the catalog of workshops.

Best,

I have enjoyed 2 weeks at your school, both with Mark Aspery and Gerold Boggs, your facility is the best I have seen, and the food was good! Keep up the good work!!

i just looked at your link for rennaissance ironwork, and the blacksmithing section, and it made me sad and frustrated.......
because i cant attend any of your workshops!
