Watch and try traditional blacksmithing in a historic forge at Conner Prairie.
Fun in the Forge is a hands-on STEM experience where kids become blacksmiths and craftspeople for the day. At this interactive workshop, families learn about metallurgy, tool-making, and historical forging techniques through live demonstrations and guided activities. Children get to observe skilled artisans at work and participate in age-appropriate metalworking projects, combining history, science, and creativity. It's an engaging way to explore how materials transform and how people have shaped tools and art for centuries.
