The StL Fire Arts(Metal, Clay, Glass, etc.) August Meetup

I hope this will be a fun and inspirational meeting place! Lots of creative metal work and sculpting went into forming the museum. I'm thinking we can spend some time exploring, then sit down to dinner and conversation, then spend more time exploring. The Museum is open until 1:00 in the morning, so there is lots of time. (Though I will be ready to go home to bed around 10:30, since I have to work in the morning) The admission price is $10 per person, plus the cost of food, and I think parking is $5. Don't let that deter you, the place is worth it, if you have never been there.

It is always great to bring photos or samples of your work.Show Offwhat you do!
Current threads of conversation include (but are not limited to):
-Cross referencing technologies; the similarities in chemistry and material properties that working at high heat entails. There is much we can learn from each other from our prospective disciplines
-There is a great interest in the group to develop a place to cooperatively work, teach and promote our art
-Selling to the public; our personal experiences
-Where we are currently working? what is the cost? what are our personal goals and struggles, IE. balancing 'work' for income with our 'work' as artists
-The encouragement of experimentation
-A genuine excitement and admiration about each others very unique artistic expression

We are all at different skill levels within our mediums. What is great about this meetup is that we can learn from each other, get inspired, explore new territory, and grow as artists and human beings in the process. Whether you are new to Fire or are a veteran in the Fire arts, Come join us for lively conversation, learning and sharing.
