Blacksmiths, those 'wizards of metal and flame', have been revered … and feared … down the long reach of time and across many cultures. Their skills of creation have become the stuff of legend, and the smiths themselves are central to many traditional tales. Storytellers Fiona Eadie and Kirsty Hartsiotis will forge some of these tales anew in this afternoon session to spark your imagination! For all aged 6 and over.
