Having amassed many actual period hand and mechanical tools of the Tin-smiths Trade, he has conducted many professional educational event demonstrations for the public.
Most noted is his annual association with the Dixie Classic Fair, in Winston-Salem NC beginning in 1994 to the present.
To whom it may concern: “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 and entertaining and quality demonstration at their event. If you have any questions or would like to discuss this recommendation further, please contact me at sparks@dcfair.com.” Sincerely
David L. Sparks Fair Director, Dixie Classic Fair, Winston-Salem, NC Other 2018 decision making authorities express:
