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.
