“Michael Felk has provided tinsmithing demonstrations at the Dixie Classic Fair’s Yesterday Village for over a decade and continues to draw strong crowds. His knowledge and personality draws fair goers in and keeps them entertained while educating them on the craft of making practical and beautiful tin products. He recently has worked with us to sell items made during the Fair, offsetting the cost of his demonstrations”. “I would recommend Michael to any Fair or Festival wanting an entertaining and quality demonstrational show at their event.

“Michael Felk has been a part of the South Carolina State Fair for quite a few years. His Tinsmithing Show was one of the first shows of its kind that we had on the grounds and he has been a major player in the development of what we now proudly call our “Heritage Village”. Our goal at the SC State Fair is to make our event a fun, educational and entertaining one and Michael Felk’s Tinsmithing Shows certainly has made and continues to make that goal a reality. Education and family entertainment is more important now that ever. We look forward to having Michael Felk’s Tinsmithing Shows for years to come.”
