Flipside Memphis - Metal Museum

It's one of Memphis' best-kept secrets. Tucked away on one of the most beautiful bluffs on the Mississippi, the National Ornamental Metal Museum is the only one of its kind in America. The museum features not only permanent and temporary exhibitions of the finest examples of the metalworkers' art, it also has a working foundry with artists in residence year-round. On Repair Days weekend, the public bring in their broken and bent tools, jewelry, utensils, and every other conceivable metal object to get fixed up by some of the foremost metalsmiths in the world. It's also a big day for students who come from all over the country to learn, network and create. Even though it may be absent from many of the guide books, the National Ornamental Metal Museum is a unique Memphis treasure.
