SALISBURY, MD---Salisbury University recently welcomed James M. Bennett High School students to observe a molten metal demonstration.

As part of the high school’s Step Up Program, students were able to watch their own handprints cast in molten bronze and assisted in the breakdown of the casts. Their handprints will be installed in a permanent display at Bennett, representing the diversity and countries of the students and faculty represented.

The workshop was led by Bill Wolff, assistant professor of sculpture, Brianna Sorenson, sculpture technician, and senior art students Blaine Steiner and Madison Andrews.
