Open Forge allows members to work in a functional blacksmith shop and use tools and equipment provided by Tennessee River Artist and Blacksmith Association.

Equipment available for use include, but not limited to, coal forges, anvils, hammers, tongs… pretty much everything you will need to practice your trade and put-to-use that which you have learned. Experienced blacksmiths are always on hand to assist.

There are some prerequisites for participating in Open Forge; see FAQ for details.
