The Steel Yard presents its 3rd annual HALLOWEEN IRON POUR!
October 28th, 2008 by Mike RitzFriday, October 31st - 6:00pm
27 Sims Avenue, Providence
This Halloween, come down to the Steel Yard for another molten metal spectacular! The gates open at 6:00 on October 31st at the Steel Yard, and admission is $5. Activities from 6pm - 7pm will include a ceramic bowl sale by our Ceramics Cooperative, bike art and costume building with Recycle-A-Bike, and a pumpkin flinging trebuchet. Proceeds from the bowl sale will benefit the Ceramics Department and resident artists. Hot cider and snacks will be available by donation.
The Iron Guild’s casting performance will start promptly at 7pm. The first Guild performance at the Steel Yard brought us a glowing skull with iron wings. Last year, they unveiled the giant flaming heart and poured molten iron into pumpkins. This year…zombies, brains, and candy.
Stick around after the pour for music from local Providence band Tides.

RISD Museum
October 20th, 2008 by Owen JohnsonProvidence has many hidden gems, and one of them is the RISD Museum’s Free for All Saturdays, which take place the last Saturday of every month, except December. Not only is admission free, there are also hands-on family art workshops. This coming Saturday, October 25, is the next Free for All and in-line with the season, costumes are encouraged.
