Step into the heat and grit of the Old West with our immersive Blacksmith Experience at Vulture City Forge

Step into the heat and grit of the Old West with our immersive Blacksmith Experience at Vulture City Forge — located in the oldest surviving blacksmith shop in Arizona.

In this hands-on, 4-hour workshop, you’ll learn the foundational skills of traditional blacksmithing, just as the town’s original craftsmen once did over a century ago. Under the guidance of our experienced smith, you’ll heat, hammer, twist, taper, chisel, and bend raw steel into a finished project you’ll take home — all while working at a real coal forge with period-appropriate tools.

This is more than a class — it’s a journey into the craftsmanship that kept the mining operation running, forged tools for survival, and built the very bones of Vulture City. Whether you're a first-timer or a hands-on history enthusiast, you'll walk away with new skills, a deeper respect for frontier labor, and something tangible forged by your own two hands.
