Very soon I will be heading to Memphis, Tennessee to one of my favorite places - the Metal Museum. I went to my first Repair Days two years ago and started bringing students last year. It is a wonderful opportunity to be with my metalworking community as we use our skills to support an important institution. Thanks to locals who bring in their broken metalwork and pay for its improvement, I can use sweat equity to make a valuable contribution.
The other thing I can do is give them work to auction off. So if you are looking to expand your art collection while helping this museum mount its valuable programming, I encourage you to have a look at their auctions.
