The annual community iron pour event called Pour’n Yer Heart Out will take place from 11 a.m. – 4 p.m. Feb. 10 at Sector67, 2100 Winnebago St., organizers announced recently.

The event is free to attend and includes live music and beer tastings. Attendees can pre-purchase molds to pour two cast iron hearts for $30, or they can bring their own molds and pay $1.50/lb. for the metal needs.

“The event really took off in popularity when partnering with Sector67,” Event Founder Alisa Toninato of FeLion Studios said in a statement last year.  “(They) helped us bring the community together at their space to be part of the production we run with our iron furnace.”

In 2016, more than 1,500 pounds of iron was melted down and cast at the event, according to Toninato.
