Aluminum Casting Session

Presented by Rivers of Steel at Carrie Blast Furnaces, Pittsburgh PA

Oct 05 2020
Aluminum Casting Session

Aluminum casting is as easy as 1–2–3! Join Rivers of Steel for a socially-distanced afternoon workshop.

This workshop is a great way to explore the metal casting process and try something new! No prior experience or artistic background necessary! Take a class with a friend; create a special gift or unique piece of art. Participants will learn how to create a unique pattern from everyday materials and invest this one-sided design in resin-bonded sand. Cast aluminum objects can be taken home at the end of the workshop.
