Aircrete Training - Spring & Summer 2027
In spring and summer 2027, Springdale will host hands-on aircrete training. Aircrete is a lightweight foamed concrete made by mixing cement and water with foam. It is affordable, insulating and easy to shape - ideal for domes and small studios. These sessions are part of our work toward the county permit for our future gallery and artist studios.
