SUMMARY:National Curriculum Level 1
DESCRIPTION:The National Curriculum offers a step-by-step progression through three levels of fundamental blacksmithing skills. Certification signifies that a smith has demonstrated mastery of a specific set of skills\, increasing in complexity with each level: Level I (beginner)\, Level II (intermediate)\, Level III (advanced). Level I is the first level of the curriculum and is designed as a guide through beginning blacksmithing techniques. Starting with safety\, Level I then moves into core skills and techniques\, including tapering\, bending\, forging and heat-treating hand tools\, punching and drifting\, basic blacksmithing math\, forging to dimension\, forge-welding\, and creating tenons. It culminates in a final project\, the Gate Latch\, designed to test the student on these skills. Upon completion of Level I\, students will have confidence in the most essential blacksmithing skills and be able to forge a wide variety of projects. The program is designed to provide a solid foundation within the craft. To earn certification\, the student needs to successfully complete the projects and techniques as outlined in the checklist in the Level I Student Packet. This is found on the website abana.org The checklist allows students and instructors to keep track of progress. ABANA will accept the recommendation from an Affiliate?s Education Program Chair or the judgment of a Certified Level I Instructor that qualifies a student as having passed Level I.

SUMMARY:Fairies of the Adirondacks
DESCRIPTION:Let the everyday slip away on this imaginative walk along the River Trail of the Adirondack Folk School. Drawing from Celtic lore\, we’ll weave a tale about Fairies\, while connecting the dots between the Faerie folk of Ireland and the Adirondacks. We’ll start with creating a house out of natural objects\, both provided and found\, for the Fairies of the Forest and end with sitting around the fire listening to the stories of the Fairy Tree Trail of Ardgillan Castle in Ireland\, the Cottingley Fairies of England\, and an Adirondack Poem or two on the Faerie realm. Enchanted tea and Fairy Bread will be served.

SUMMARY:Harp Making
DESCRIPTION:Come build a Paraguayan harp. This harp is characterized by a large soundbox with a rounded base\, very light weight\, closely-spaced light tension strings (usually nylon)\, a relatively flat harmonic curve\, and with the strings running up through the center of the neck\, which are tuned with gear-style tuners (like a guitar). Almost all harps of this style are played with the fingernails\, in very rhythmically intricate music. This is the national instrument of Paraguay\, and is commonly found throughout South America\, Central America and in parts of Mexico. Students will be using tools from the past and today\, to fashion an instrument that will last a lifetime. After this class you may even want to learn to play your beautiful new harp!
