Iron Breaking Volunteers Needed

Description

Liberty Arts is looking for volunteers to help us prepare for our biggest event of the year! On every Tuesday between Mid September and November 14, from 5:30 to 7:30pm, come to Liberty Arts to participate in Iron Breaking.

Liberty Arts' 10th Annual Iron Pour is coming up on November 14th, 2026. In order to run an Iron Pour, our organization needs dozens of buckets of potato-chip-sized pieces of iron. We receive larger pieces of iron through donations (radiators, bathtubs, etc.) and these need to be broken down into small pieces. These small pieces of iron will be melted and poured, creating iron sculptures during our 10th Annual Iron Pour.

This volunteer opportunity is a physical activity. You'll be smashing metal scrap using sledgehammers! We provide safety gear (glasses, face shields, and shoe coverings), but YOU MUST wear denim pants and closed-toe shoes/boots. 

This opportunity is a great stress reliever. Take out some of your frustrations and support the arts all at once! 

Email ironpour@libertyartsnc.org if you have any questions
