Located at the site of the fi rst successful iron works in British-occupied North America, the virtual gallery brings students into dialogue with place and history to inspire artistic expression. The featured artists are members of the MassArt Iron Corps, a nationally recognized student-run organization dedicated to the historic traditions and techniques of iron casting. (Find more artwork and artist stories at instagram.com/ massartironcorps www.nps. gov.) In cast-iron plaques and artists profi les, students complete the sentence “I cast iron because…” and consider the purpose behind their artistic practice. With personal stories, diverse narratives and incredible sculptures, I Cast Iron Because… peels back the curtain to off er visitors a glimpse at the process and passion of contemporary iron casting and the enduring legacies of Saugus’s 17th-century iron works.
