Madison College’s Fort Atkinson campus will host the annual Metal Mania event on Oct. 9. This event, which has moved from May 9 to allow for greater participation from students and businesses, highlights the Fort Atkinson Metal Fabrication with Welding Bolt-On program, where students can earn two degrees in just one year.
Metal Mania features a metal fabrication and welding competition with teams made up of area high school students, Madison College students, and community members. In collaboration with workforce development, this event introduces attendees to metal fabrication and welding careers while providing networking opportunities with potential employers.
There will be live demonstrations of laser cutting, welding, and blacksmithing throughout the day, as well as activities for all ages and food options. Last year’s event saw over 300 attendees.
