NEW for 2025!! – Tinsmith
Michael Felk & The Art of Tinsmithing
Michael Felk is a master tinsmith and showman who’s been demonstrating the lost art of tinsmithing for over 30 years. Using authentic 18th- and 19th-century tools, he creates historic tin pieces live in front of fairgoers—often in under 15 minutes. His shows are interactive, educational, and full of energy, blending craftsmanship with audience games, trivia, and storytelling. From farm tools to medical contraptions, Felk brings history to life one tin creation at a time.
