I love that I found a place where you can learn how to do almost any hobby. I am new to ceramics and fused glass and had such a great time! I now feel comfortable trying them both on my own. I am going to try out wood turning on a lathe and either glass blowing or ornamental welding next 🤷🏼♀️ so many choices!
Me and my group visited the curious Forge as part of a wounded warrior project odyssey adventure. Not only for the house extremely knowledgeable. They made the experience, fun and enjoyable, as well as bringing our group together through the different stations that brought out are creativity and artistic abilities, even when we thought we had none, lol They encouraged us. They laughed with us. They had fun with us and overall fantastic experience. I am from Oklahoma, but if I ever make my way out there again I will definitely stop by.
We signed up our 10-year-old son for Toni Tone’s ceramics summer camp. He loved the course got to do a variety of projects and proud to bring his creations home proud to give them as gifts! Curious Forge is a true treasure of Nevada county!
It's a great place to go and learn how to do amazing things and become a Maker. Everything from sewing to metal work. Jewelry to glass arts. You name it they likely have it. Check out the website. My husband and I are going to become members
I wish the glass blowing class had been more hands-on. I'll watch for more indepth classes. Nice people, some amazing machines. I was especially impressed with the CNC Plasma Cutter. The price to join isn't especially high if you consider what's available to you, $95.00 per month, plus some crafts require a fee, ie: kiln firing ceramics. They offer woodworking, fiber crafts, metal working, glass blowing, glass fusing, ceramics, jewelry, metal casting, 3D printing, more than I can remember. They also offer a deal to volunteers if the join fee is more than you can afford, or you just love the vibe of the place and want to be involved.
