the Steel Yard’s June Events

It’s May! Which means we’re one month away from our busiest season of the year! The yard will be hopping almost every week with exciting and unique events. Some are hosted by the Steel Yard, others are other individuals, businesses, and groups who RENT THE YARD for their events.

That’s not all- we’re also participating in the Valley Arts District’S Open Studios, partnering with PVD for a dance party as well as bringing the Blacksmithing Trailer downtown!
