Logan the Blacksmith

I met Logan when I went by the National Ornamental Metal Museum in Downtown Memphis. It’s just south of the main stretch of downtown, and is a really cool place. There’s a museum with an amazing collection of metal sculptures inside, and in their courtyard is an ever changing display of larger metal works.

Beyond the courtyard, is the Blacksmith’s shop where I stopped by to see what it’s like. Blacksmiths are kind of a lost art, and to see people bend metal with their hand tools is really amazing. If you have any broken metalwork, the guys at the Metal Museum can fix it.

They’re located right on the river’s edge, so there’s a great view of the river.
