About the event
Come learn how to create your iron art mold the easy way! With guidance, you'll take your 2D designs and turn them into a 3D mold to create your iron art. This process is simple using tools like metal spoons, screwdrivers, and more to carve out your design from the sand & resin block. We'll show you all the tips and tricks to scratching your mold to bring to life your unique iron art. At the end of the class, you'll leave your mold with us until it's filled with molten hot iron during our annual Arts on Fire Iron Pour!
Your completed mold will be filled with cast iron on during our annual Arts on Fire event, by a crew of iron artists from all over NC. Sunday, September 15You can come watch too!
Thanks to the support of the Arts Council of Winston-Salem & Forsyth County, scratch molds are discounted 50% until so get in here early to make twice as much iron art!Sunday, September 15,
