Metal Petals + Healing Roots brings together artists from the Metal Museum, Moore Tech, and the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Memphis to create art from disassembled gun parts collected during the Guns to Gardens initiative. While the Museum will not be collecting or dismantling guns during the event, Metal Petals + Healing Roots serves as a platform for artists to repurpose these materials into meaningful works of art. Admission to the Metal Museum is free on the day of the event, offering visitors the opportunity to explore the museum's collection while enjoying live music, food and drinks, and engaging in free and paid hands-on activities. Additionally, attendees can watch the artists at work in the Blacksmith shop transform dismantled gun parts into art and can hammer on guns parts at our outdoor forge. At 1:00PM, there will be an artist talk in the Museum’s event tent where attendees can learn more about the artworks being created and the inspiration behind them.
