ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
The annual Foundry Invitational & River Exhibition (F.I.R.E.), now in its 8th year, is a conference for metal casting artists of all experience levels. Held at the Metal Museum's Foundry, the conference offers attendees the opportunity to connect with fellow artists and expand their knowledge of mold making. The event features instruction from Foundry staff and volunteers, as well as access to a variety of pattern and flask materials. In addition, participants can partake in specialized workshops and a pop-up exhibition highlighting the work of conference attendees. The conference concludes on Saturday with a day of metal pouring, including aluminum, bronze, and iron, followed by a post-pour dinner.
