SUMMARY: Craig Caviar, a lifelong blacksmith, creates artful metal works showcased in exhibitions like the one at the Lexington Public Library. He finds therapy in his Louisville forge and aims to continue his work as long as possible. Recently, he’s gained attention for making simple garden tools from surrendered guns through the “Guns to Gardens” initiative, inspired by Isaiah’s biblical verse on transforming weapons into instruments for peace. Since 2022, the initiative has safely taken nearly 100 guns out of circulation. Caviar hopes his pieces promote peace and responsible gun ownership, contributing to reducing gun violence in the community.
