In this introduction to foundry processes, you will turn your ideas into cast-metal sculptures as you learn the basics of metal casting. You will make a sculpture, create a mold in resin-bonded sand, and then watch as molten aluminum is poured into your mold. Once cooled, you have your own unique, finished sculpture!
