Artisan working studios and gift shop sell handcrafted iron, woodwork, enamelling, and more.
Working studios create an inviting and educational experience for the whole family. Kootenay Forge has been forging red-hot iron into graceful home amenities for over 30 years. FireWorks Enamelled Copper produces a magical combination of kiln-fired metal and glass. Other local artists and artisans are featured in our central gift shop. As one of the “Artisans of Crawford Bay” buildings, we provide a unique experience for visitors from around the globe. Our mountain hiking and biking trails and pristine lakeshore on the East Shore of Kootenay Lake are a pleasure to visit for a day, week, or month.
