Welcome to the North Carolina Artist Blacksmiths Association

NCABANA is a non-profit organization of volunteer blacksmiths, united in a common goal: the continued preservation of our craft through education, communication, demonstration, and fellowship. Our mission is rooted in the empowerment of all blacksmiths, regardless of skill level, in pursuing the highest standards of craftsmanship possible.

Forging a memorial cross in Roger’s memory.

For many years we have had this meeting at the shop of Roger Barbour in Clayton.   Sadly, Roger passed away this year and so his shop is no longer available.

This meeting is dedicated to his memory.

 

This family friendly event will feature live blacksmithing demonstrations, "Iron in the Hat" raffles, incredible food, tailgate sales, and networking; we encourage you to attend! Non-Members are welcome!
