On Saturday, November 15, 2025, from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m., Liberty Arts will be holding their 9th Annual Iron Pour in the middle of Durham Central Park, 501 Foster Street, Durham, North Carolina.
It’s free to watch this, and it’s amazing. Please RSVP on the Eventbrite page. Please consider making a donation.
They’ll be pouring 4,000 pounds of molten iron (3,000 degrees!) into molds.
Fall is looking great around the Triangle, whether you’re looking for something spooky or totally kid-friendly! Check out our HUGE list of fall festivals, as well as our list of Raleigh area haunted trails and pumpkin patches, hayrides and corn mazes! We have also put together a big list of Halloween events and Trick or Treat events!
Think of it as a “gritty ballet where all the dancers are decked out in helmets and head-to-toe in leathers, dancing around a roaring furnace and pouring red hot metal into molds.”
The iron pour is an art, not just a science, and plans can change throughout the evening. Go with the flow…just like the molten metal!
In addition, the event will include
- Portable glassblowing demonstrations
- Blacksmith demonstrations
- Thrilling fire dancing performances
- Drumming performances by Batala
- Live Painting and Face Painting
- Delicious eats from local food trucks and vendors
- Original artwork and handmade goods from 24 local artists
- Admission is FREE, and ample free parking is available.
Those who participated in the Scratch Block classes at the Foundry will get to watch their molds filled with molten iron.
Double-Check Before You Head Out!
We make every effort to make sure that everything on Triangle on the Cheap is 100% accurate.
However, sometimes things change without notice, and it’s also possible that we can make a mistake.
Please verify all deals and events with the venue or organizer before you go.
