MUSEUM WEEK MONDAY Heritage Park KITES & BLACKSMITHS

Post by BI Historical Society »

1-4 P.M.

Come out to Heritage Park and set your creative side free. Bring the kids and the 'kids at heart' and build a traditional Kite and let it soar! All materials are provided.

The Michigan Blacksmiths Artist Association will be in the park until Wednesday. Watch them demonstrate an amazing historical art form using real coal, antique forges, and anvils to make hooks, fireplace pokers, and many decorative items. Ask questions and talk with the blacksmiths as they work.

Browse one-of-a-kind items for sale. This year the blacksmiths will be crafting trinkets out of Beaver Island nails! Bring the family and visit at your leisure and pick up a one of a kind souvenir.

See you there!
