Total cost of a bronze you create $30.00

If you ever thought about becoming an artist, maybe a sculptor, here's your chance to give it a try. SPH has put together a program called "Bronze Casting Workshop in a Bag." For the staggeringly low price of $30.00 and a can of beans (without the beans) you can create a bronze sculpture the old fashion way-through the lost wax process of bronze casting. We highly recommend that schoolteachers take advantage of this opportunity to educate students (6 years and up) about art and the creative process. You can purchase "Bronze Casting Workshop in a Bag" at the same locations you deliver your finished wax sculpture/s to. The initial cost is $5.00 for the informational booklet and wax. For all the details on this offer click the icon above.

If you already purchased "Bronze Casting Workshop in a Bag" and have finished creating your wax sculpture you can deliver it to any of the locations listed in SPH MENU. Clicking the icon above for locations. To have your sculpture poured at a particular time and locations your sculpture needs to be delivered to us at least two weeks in advance of the bronze pouring schedule. Check the HOME page on this for BCWB Events.

If you're interested in watching your wax sculpture being turned into bronze you can do so by coming to the bronze pour demonstrations SPH conducts at various locations. Check the HOME page on this web site for details.
Outside the Denver area.
Just about anyone can participate in the "Bronze Casting Workshop in a Bag". Mail $6.00 ($5.00 for instructional booklet and wax and $1.00 for postage) to SPH ARTFUNCTIONS. Create your wax sculpture with the wax and mail it back to us in a #10 tin can. A coffee tin with a plastic resealable lid is ideal for ship your wax sculpture to us. We'll produce the bronze sculpture and mail it back to you COD.

SPH Portable Foundry
Constructed out of discarded metal, clothes drier drum, 55 gallon drum, pipe and a few special materials and equipment this homemade foundry works as good as the store bought ones. This is the setup we use to do bronze pours on the road. It takes a 4-gallon (25 lbs) tank of propane to melt 210 lbs of bronze in 1:20 min.
