David Freedman gives blacksmithing demonstrations and workshops at schools and colleges as well as outdoor events such as shows and fayres. The picutre shows the ancient art of playing the anvil along to the bagpipes and the hurdy gurdy! This was at Birkenhead Priory Medieval Fayre 2005

The steel palm trees on the left were made on behalf of the Islington Schools Environment Project to enhance the playground environment. These were reproduced for several schools.

The gate to the right was designed in conjunction with the children of Orchard Primary School in London. A series of workshops were held in the school to produce elements of the design which were combined so that the end result includes the ideas of many children.

David Freedman has worked in conjunction with Groundwork, Tate Liverpool, The Greenwood Centre, Crewe and Nantwich Local Council and other organizations.

 
In 2004, David was asked to produce a memorial sculpture in memory of a pupil of Fallibroome High School in Macclesfield. Here is an article from Cheshire Life Magazine, September 2004 on the memorial to Oliver Purisiol. Click thumbnail to read the article.
