Becoming a Member

The CBA welcomes anyone interested in blacksmithing, from beginners to professionals. Dues cover membership for one year. CBA offers three levels of membership:

  • Individual ($45) – An individual membership is best for someone who is planning on attending conferences and events alone.

  • Family ($55) – A family membership includes one or two adults and any number of school-age children. Family memberships include only one subscription to California Blacksmith.

  • Business ($55) – A business membership allows employees to attend CBA events and participate in CBA classes. The business receives only one copy of the magazine and only one vote in Association elections.

Note: Application for membership in the CBA indicates that you have read and agree to the safety and sexual harassment policies.

Mail-in membership forms and payment should be sent to the CBA Secretary at:
