Powderhall Bronze Home News Casting Metal Fabrication Conservation and Restoration Classes Visits Vincent Butler Bronzes Contact Visits and Team Away Days Visiting the Foundry We offer tours of the foundry for groups of visitors by prior arrangement. We can also accommodate School groups, Corporate Team visits and Events. For larger groups a Clay Modelling Workshop can be organised as a part of your visit with a specialist tutor. This can be a significant educational experience for school students who are interested in applying to Art School. As a team building exercise for Employers we offer a Clay Modelling workshop where the group make life size clay portrait heads in pairs. This allows the team to learn a new skill outside of their usual place of work. The workshop will break down barriers in a relaxed environment and encourage dialogue about art and making. For groups doing workshops we can provide a locally prepared lunch as part of the package. Please contact us on 0131 552 5999 for more information and arrange your group visit. A recent school group visit, consisting of a foundry tour and portrait head clay modelling workshop with sculptor Kenny Hunter. Team Away Days A Scottish Government Team Away day in November 2019 at Powderhall Bronze. ‘ I really enjoyed the away day and thought the highlight was the Sculptures of each other. It was good to spend time in a partnership with only one colleague, but be within an enclosed room ‘safe space’ with all the team together. Which allowed for folk to communicate and make light hearted, good natured comments to each other across the floor.’ Powered by Squarespace
