The Austin Forging Competition celebrates the art of blacksmithing, featuring a contestant lineup selected from the top tier of contemporary metalworkers. AFC 2020 will offer a rare, up-close experience of the dynamic processes these accomplished artists use to manipulate their raw materials into works of art. There will be tours of the innovative and nationally-recognized Community First! Village, live music provided by several great bands, a delicious lunch (including vegetarian options) available and a pop-up market of handmade products created by formerly-homeless neighbors.
