Meet The CLA Artists!
Imagine what it would be like to watch a video of an 18th century gunmaker. While that era of video could not have been captured, the CLA wants to make sure that 100’s years from now, we will have captured videos of the great CLA artists that embraced the 21st century. As we capture videos of these CLA artist they will be published on You Tube and archived on the CLA website for the world to enjoy!
Please contact Katie in the CLA office if you are willing to participate with the CLA in filming your video. We hope you will enjoy watching these videos as they become available on-line.
