Doings at the
Gathering
The Gathering at Garst is underway this weekend with outstanding
exhibitors. Wonderful skilled historical craftspeople are demonstrating
and selling their products for the unique enjoyment of visitors to the
Gathering.
Hank Steinmetz is a blacksmith who forms iron into beautiful objects
using a mobile forge. Visitors can see how a traveling craftsman would
live as he and his family moved about the frontier selling their wares.
Daniel Hrinko, box maker, came to the Gathering from Springfield, Ohio.
Daniel crafts perfect wooden boxes that visitors will marvel at.
