Getting Ready for the Iron Pour

The 2023 WNCSC Iron Light Iron Pour took place on the WNCSC grounds. Sculptors from around the United States and beyond participated in Iron Pour, a group iron casting residency and gathering.  This year’s artists in residence and artist interns had a public demonstration of the iron casting process. 

With a pre-pour briefing, the main task was lighting the furnace to melt the iron.
