SPONSORSHIP REQUEST
Ontario Artist Blacksmith Association's
CanIRON VIII Conference - the Canadian National Blacksmith's Conference
The Ontario Artist Blacksmith Association is seeking financial assistance
for the CanIRON VIII Opening/Closing Ceremonies. These ceremonies will
feature some of the wonderful creations forged by talented artist blacksmiths
from across Ontario. Your donation will also help provide supplies needed
by demonstrators.
Auction items
One of the most popular events of CanIRON is our auction. That's why
we are asking if you have any items to be included in the auction or
our daily Iron-in-the-Hat draws. The auction will take place on Saturday,
July 30th at 7 pm. Everyone is invited to drop by and make a bid.
Conference program
We are currently in the early stages of developing our conference programs.
With an anticipated attendance of about 1,200 people during the course
of the 4-day conference, this would be a great opportunity for local
business to sponsor the event by purchasing advertising space in the
program. Hurry while space lasts.

OABA and CanIRON
The Ontario Artist Blacksmith Association was established in 1982 to
serve as an organization for local blacksmiths to exchange creative
ideas, access teaching and learning opportunities, and provide a supportive
network for members.
CanIRON is the bi-annual national blacksmith's conference, which moves
across Canada for each session. Last seen in Ontario in 2003, CanIRON
8 will build on the successful lessons of past conferences.
CanIRON VIII is open to paid registrations, with aspects open to the
general public :
Canadian and international demonstrators showcasing their skills and
knowledge
Feature demonstrations, lectures and teaching stations
An auction and daily draws
A gallery of blacksmiths' artwork
Exhibition/information booths from blacksmithing schools and suppliers
We are all looking forward hosting a very successful CanIRON VIII conference.
You can help make that happen!
