Fabrication As
An Art Form
Not everyone wants to compete in the main event — but if you've got a sharp eye for metal and a competitive streak, the Art Competition is for you. Five artists are selected to create a functional piece of metal art and bring it to the event.
Artists work on their pieces mostly off-site, then bring their work to Kempton on September 12th to put the finishing touches on it in front of the live crowd. The piece must serve a real-world purpose — it can't just look cool. What that purpose is, that's entirely up to the artist.
A Piece Of
History On Display
Metal artist Jerry Boertzel has created a special 9/11 memorial tribute sculpture that will be on display at this year's event. The piece incorporates a piece of steel salvaged from the actual Twin Towers — honoring those lost on September 11th, 2001, and preserving a piece of that history through the craft of metalwork.
It's a powerful reminder of what skilled hands can build — and what they can help us remember.
