On Saturday, November 4, 2023, from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m., Liberty Arts will be holding their 7th Annual Iron Pour in the middle of Durham Central Park, 501 Foster Street, Durham.
It’s free to watch this, and it’s amazing. Please RSVP on the Eventbrite page.
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 pumpkin patches, haunted trails 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.”

Double-Check Before You Head Out!

However, sometimes things change without notice, and it's also possible that we can make a mistake.
