Description:
Through training in the fine and industrial arts, The Crucible promotes creative expression, reuse of materials and innovative design while serving as an accessible arts venue for the public. The Crucible is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization.

History:
Founded in 1999 by a small group of artists, The Crucible is the Bay Area's only nonprofit sculpture studio, educational foundry and metal fabrication shop offering classes in fine and industrial arts.
