The fire arts center of chicago will be back in our old neighborhood this weekend for a demonstration. While we have moved to our new location, we still hope to keep in touch with our fellow artists in the Ravenswood area and this weekend we are showing off our exciting metal-pouring techniques to anyone interested. The ArtWalk Ravenswood takes place this weekend and we at the fire arts center will be out behind the Peter Jones Gallery pouring bronze for all to see. Take this opportunity to stop by and watch, ask questions, and sign up for classes if you like what you see. If you are more interested in clay sculpture classes, forging, or our other classes, stop by anyway and you can get more information about those classes as well.
Here is the information from the ArtWalk homepage:
Special projects are very important to the Fire Art Center’s mission and goals. We aim to facilitate, and participate in, public art projects through outreach and collaboration with other community organizations. Join us Saturday, October 7th for a day of metal arts workshops and demonstrations. From noon - 5:30pm behind the Peter Jones Gallery at Belle Plaine and Ravenswood. Past projects have introduced adults and children with disabilities to the excitement of metal casting, and have taught high school students the joys of metalworking.
We look forward to seeing you there!
