Come out to join us for a night of good food, music, and auction items!  Auction items include "unique" pieces of Sloss as well as items provided by local artists, photographers and merchants.  Local artists Merrilee Challiss, Jennifer Wallace, Heather Spencer Holmes, Luke Wilson, Megan Kimber, Andrea Pashall and Daisy Winfrey, to name a few, are putting their individual designs to Sloss "Doodle Bowls" cast by our own Sloss Metal Artists.

This year's event will include a private tour of the rare Sloss Boilers as well as a chance to explore the unique 1905 Blower Engine Room, normally closed to the general public.

If you are interested in donating and item or have questions, please contact Karen Utz at 205.324.1911 or karen.utz@ci.birmingham.al.us.  Tickets may be purchased here.

man_sparks01.jpgMETAL ARTS AT SLOSS FURNACES

Sloss Furnaces has a history that's steeped in a 100-year tradition of iron pouring.  To preserve that history we are evaluating our Metal Arts Artists-in-Residence program to provide opportunities for artists around the world to share their talents with Birmingham.  Metal Arts is important to many in the art community, and remains an important part of Sloss Furnaces.

All of our programs remain intact so explore our website and plan for 2012.
