Ice Breaker & Student Craft ExchangeName tags are never enough for the Metal Immersion family! We believe the best way to get to know one another is through a barrel of laughs and a shared love for the craft. To make things even more exciting, we’re hosting a Student Craft Exchange. Simply bring a small handmade item for each participant to trade, and by the end of the night, you’ll leave with a bag full of unique treasures from your fellow makers. Be sure to register early so we can provide an accurate head count! 

The Mentors Maker's Market - Get ready for an evening of inspiration and "retail therapy." Our instructors will be showcasing their finest wares, giving you a chance to browse, shop, and admire their masterwork up close. To help get everyone in the creative spirit, we’ll be serving adult beverages to sip on while you shop.

Pajamas & Pliers Party - It’s time to get cozy and maybe do some work! Grab your favorite pajamas, your pliers, a drink and those UFOs that have been sitting on your bench for too long. Whether you’re finishing a bezel or just here for the wine and laughs, this "after-hours" social is all about relaxation and community. No pressure, no deadlines—just good music, great company, and a little late-night tinkering.

Look What I Made! - Before we head home, it’s time to celebrate your hard work! Whether your project is polished and gallery-ready or still a work in progress, we want to see it. This show-and-tell session is a new tradition so we can get inspired for next year. Come show off your new skills and see the incredible variety of talent that makes Metal Immersion so special.
