This event is open to students enrolled in ARTS 308 ONLY.

The “Intercollegiate Festival of Fire” at Salem Art Works is a weekend-long symposium that brings together students from across the nation to share techniques, ideas, and resources in iron casting, ceramics, glass blowing, as well as blacksmithing. With multiple large-scale iron pours, performances, gallery exhibitions, and artist talks, the weekend provides and immersive and highly active learning experience. The festival spans three days during which the students will be camping as a group among the 90-acre sculpture park housed on the grounds of SAW. Ramapo students will participate in a number of activities over the weekend and get to experience the kind of opportunities an artist residency can offer after school.
