Elements is a series centered on architectural preservation. These discussions look at how preservation of the building trades assures historic skills and craftsmanship continue to be taught, valued, understood and integrated into modern building design in the 21st century. Some webinars will also feature new developments in building resources and materials.

This webinar will focus on metal, featuring Hank Handler, craftsman and co-founder of Oak Grove Restoration Company, and Ken Schwarz, master blacksmith at Colonial Williamsburg. In what ways can the building trades assure the historic skills of metal craftsmanship continue to be valued and integrated into the future?

Registration is now closed. A recording will be available to all registrants.
