Contemporary Longrifle Association 2022 Show | Event Tour | Muzzleloading Art and Accoutrements

In this video we travel to the 2022 Contemporary Longrifle Association Annual show to meet with friends and some of the best artists of Contemporary Longrifle culture. While I try to film every table and incude as many tables in the video as I can, at the end of the day I can only fit so many.

Check out my full channel for clips from the show as well as highlights featuring individual displays and exhibits. The organization defines its mission as a collaborative effort of its members dedicated to preserving the tradition of the contemporary longrifle, related accoutrements and art forms created after the mid-twentieth century.

The organization was founded in 1996. A group of 47 founding members joined the CLA in 1997, a Board of Directors was formed that year and the CLA held its first annual show and meeting was held in July of that year at the Radisson Airport Hotel in Cincinnati, Ohio. Today, the CLA has more than 2,000 members and holds its annual meeting and 350 table show at the Lexpo Convention Center in Lexington, KY in August of each year.
