Open day to fire the imagination
FIRE dancers, raku firing and molten metal displays will be just some of the winterthemed activities open for the public at Carmarthen School of Art’s open evening next month.
Coleg Sir Gâr’s art school, based at Job’s Well Road in Carmarthen, is encouraging people to visit the event where there will be live music, hot food, craft sales, glazing and firing, painting with light, face painting, enamelling, as well as student ambassadors being on hand for campus tours.
Heating up the event will be a specialist iron pour display which will see staff and students from the sculpture team, pouring and casting hot metal into moulds throughout the evening.
Carmarthen School of Art is the only educational institution in the UK to offer students the opportunity of working with three metals which include iron, aluminium and bronze.
The event, which will also offer advice on studying art and design at the art school, is called Noson Calan Gaeaf, and takes place at the college’s Job’s Well campus in Carmarthen on Wednesday, November 9, running from 5pm to 8pm.
