Meet & Greet: Jesse Meyer - A Welding Demonstration

Join us for a Meet and Greet at Jesse Meyer Sculpture Studio, where Milwaukee-based metal sculptor Jesse Meyer offers a behind the scenes look at his studio process.

In 2000 Jesse Meyer cofounded a Milwaukee base design build company called Flux Design. After 10 years of working and learning his craft in the design world, Jesse left to pursue solo career has an independent artist. He now creates metal sculptures of bronze, stainless steel, and mild steel; by hand, hammer, and anvil in his Milwaukee area "Mequon" sculpture studio. He has ongoing relationships with six galleries located across the US and takes on a number of private commissions on a regular basis.

Jesse will share insights into balancing collaborative design work with the freedom of solo artistry, while creating meaningful sculptures that range from intimate pieces to large-scale public installations.

The highlight of the afternoon will be a live demonstration showcasing Jesse's distinctive process from concept to completion. Watch as he takes you step-by-step through crafting his signature sculpted garden fish and forging striking works in bronze, steel, and stainless steel. Welding helmets will be provided. 

Whether you're an aspiring artist, a lover of metalwork, or simply intrigued by the fusion of craftsmanship and creativity, this informal meet and greet is your chance to connect with Jesse, ask questions, view works in progress, and explore commissioning opportunities.
