Join the NorthWest Blacksmith Association Today!

We Are The N.W.B.A! And we are dedicated to education and preservation of the art and craft of blacksmithing.

Join the N.W.B.A. And become part of the Northwest community of blacksmiths. The N.W.B.A. is one of the oldest and largest organization of it kind. Started in 1979, we recently celebrated our thirtieth anniversary with a huge celebration and conference.

Conferences are our twice a year get-togethers usually held alternately in the North and South of our area. These are three-day events that bring together hundreds of blacksmiths from around Washington, Oregon, Idaho, British Columbia and afar. Three days of demonstrations, hands-on workshops and the camaraderie of folks who share a common interest. Tailgating, vendors, a gallery of ironwork, dinner and an auction just add to the excitement. With membership you have the opportunity to join in the fun and education.

Membership also brings you The Hot Iron News four times a year. The Hot Iron News is our award winning publication that will keep you informed of what's happening in The N.W.B.A, the Northwest, and in the world of blacksmithing.

In addition, membership allows you complete access to our extensive library of books, tapes and videos. There is no charge for borrowing from the library. You may also join in our other activities throughout the year.

So, what are you waiting for? Sign up TODAY!
