The Tinsmith Museum of America is a hands-on museum in Williamsburg, Virginia. It has a collection of tinsmithing tools and equipment for making tinware and other items from tinplate. Artefacts from the 18th and 19th century that were used by tinsmiths have been curated to preserve the craft and trade.
It was incorporated in 2016, with the purpose of preserving the history of manufacturing tinware in the United States, from the earliest tinker of Jamestown to the mass production of tools made by Peck Stow & Wilcox. The museum began as a popup museum to display the basic set of tools owned by a small tinshop; it now includes patent examples of machines used to simplify the work of a tinsmith.[citation needed]
The museum has published The Complete Tinsmith book among other publications.[1]
