G.M.B.A.

I'm currently a part of an organization called the Green Mountain Blacksmiths' Association (G.M.B.A.). This group is dedicated to educating the public about the craft of blacksmithing. We do public demonstrations showing a wide range of traditional and contemporary blacksmithing techniques. We also aim to serve as a source of knowledge regarding the traditional and current roles of blacksmithing in our society.

For those of us that get really excited about metal we have "Meets" here in Vermont every few months. At these "Hammer-Ins" we share information on techniques and try to forge as much fun as possible out of the time we have and the folks that have gathered together.
