Think blacksmithing belongs in the history books? Think again! Modern smiths are actually practical metallurgists. Come out to Science Fest and discover the incredible physics happening with every strike of the hammer. You’ll learn how blacksmiths manipulate grain structures, why hot iron loses its magnetism, and how a splash of water turns soft iron into rock-hard steel. Bring the whole family to witness the ultimate intersection of art and engineering!
