Due to the pandemic the festival was canceled in 2020. Because of the cancellation\, Toe River Arts recognized the need to adapt and hosted a virtual exhibition of blacksmith work. Elizabeth Brim was featured as the master blacksmith in both 2020 and 2021.

This year\, the Blacksmith Exhibition will be hosted in the fall\, September 25 – October 30 and curated by Elizabeth Brim. This is an exciting departure from Toe River Arts’ usual Blacksmith Exhibit which is normally open to all blacksmiths.
