The fall semester has started and it has many of the staff, who are also college students, thinking about going to campus on a more regular basis again. Going to class sometimes impacts what is on our minds when it comes to interpreting some of the rooms at Sutter’s Fort State Historic Park, such as the blacksmith shop. In this video, Marco, one of our blacksmiths, demonstrates the same blacksmithing methods available in the 1840s at the Fort to repurpose a J hook to make a pencil holder. Being able to repurpose one item into another item was common in the blacksmith shop in the 1840s. Visit Sutter’s Fort on the September 12th and October 10th to see the blacksmith shop in operation and many other activities during our Demonstration Days. Sutter’s Fort State Historic Park is a California State Park located in the Midtown Sacramento, California. #museumtok #suttersfort #castateparks #blacksmith #learnontiktok
