The best way to get involved at The Crucible is to learn from our knowledgeable and talented faculty who make it the special place it is. The Crucible offers both youth and adult classes in a variety of formats, levels, and price points, ranging from project-focused classes, introductions to a discipline, and continuing offerings that can transform a novice into a skilled and confident craftsperson. Once you have a few Crucible classes under your belt, you can sign up for lab sessions, where you can use The Crucible’s equipment to work on personal projects and continue to develop your craft.

As a nonprofit, we rely on a dedicated team of volunteers to make our work and mission possible. We have an amazing group of folks who give their time and energy to help the studio run smoothly, keep our bike program rolling, support office staff, and so much more. You don’t have to be an industrial artist to support our work! To show our gratitude, we offer our volunteers a range of benefits, from discounts off class tuition, studio access, specialty programming, and free entry to on- and off-site events.

The Crucible’s hands-on team building workshops in the industrial arts boost morale, lower stress, and stimulate creative thinking. Fun, rewarding group classes encourage collaboration, problemsolving, and exploration while teaching techniques in welding, glass fusing, flameworking, blacksmithing, plasma cutting,
jewelry making, woodturning, and more. We offer 2- or 3-hour workshops for groups as large as 150+. Participants can create their own projects or work on one project together, like a glass fused representation of the team’s logo or a unique welded and forged welcome sign.
