Brass Spoon Workshop with Alison Jackson (Ferro Forma)
28 February 2026 | 10am–5pm | KIN Gallery
Join us for an immersive day in the workshop with acclaimed silversmith Alison Jackson of Ferro Forma, where you’ll create your own customised brass spoon from beginning to end. Guided step by step, Alison will share the techniques, tips, and quiet satisfactions of metal forming, demystifying the process behind one of the most humble and beloved objects: the spoon.
This is an intermediate-level workshop, and participants are encouraged to have basic saw piercing skills. All materials are provided, along with light refreshments, allowing you to focus fully on the joy of making.
