Celebrate the art of the blacksmith! It's fascinating to watch them craft sculpture, jewelry, furniture and amazing art creations. The festival lines the Locust Street in downtown Spruce Pine (locals call it Lower Street). It includes demonstrations, arts and crafts to buy, food and more. Hours are 10 AM-4 PM, and it's free to attend. This area is home to the highly respected Penland School of Craft with many world-class artists. Come grab a sips and enjoy the festivities.
