Join us for our annual Sparks in the Dark iron pour with the Alabama Forge Council at Tannehill Historic Ironworks. The Alabama Forge Council will have their Annual conference this weekend, featuring demonstration and unique works of blacksmith art. We will have scratch blocks and bowls as well as workshops available on Saturday. Then we pour iron around dusk Saturday night.

Alabama Art Casting is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit arts and education organization.  We are devoted to educating the public about traditional and modern methods of pattern making, mold making, and iron casting processes.  The group has been in operation at Tannehill Ironworks Historic State Park in McCalla, AL since 1999.  We maintain an active art foundry there, presenting introductory and advanced mold making workshops and our popular “Sparks in the Dark” nighttime iron casting demonstrations during the spring and fall months.
