Featured Demonstrator- Andrew Molinaro

To say Andrew is a Blacksmith would be a tremendous understatement. He is an artist…. who can manipulate metal in many forms. He is a world traveler whose love of the craft of Blacksmithing is unparalleled. He is a true craftsman who has forged some of the finest works of art.
The Tidewater Blacksmith’s Guild is honored that Andrew is willing to give us a weekend of his time demonstrating for us at The Gathering of the Blacksmiths. We hope you are able to join us and look forward to a great event.
