Wood Carving Shows

[Ripton]

Ok, now I wanna go and check out a show, I see nothing listed in New England (Do we even have them here) I know of one in June in Lancaster Co. PA (Thanks Arleen) Does anyone know of any other shows in the NorthEast?

Thanks

Come on Gulf, be honest. I've been down in the "Sunshine" for over 2 weeks now and it would not be bad if the wind wasn't coming out of the north at about 40 mph.

Sun yes, warn "NO".

There is a small carving show held in June at the Carousel Museum in Bristol Ct. There is also a large carving show held in Mystic Ct. in early July. The New England Wood Carvers have a how in Eastern Mass. just outside Boston in October.

Sorry Paul, this is not normal for Fl., I think the average this time of the year is 70. This is my 5th winter here and by far the coldest, on the bright side no snow to showel.

Hi Ripton,

I was going to give you the same info as Doc did, above. One thing to add, the Fall show for New England Wildlife Artisans was cancelled last year. I don't know if they're going to have it for 2010. Check out their web site for more info. I've been there a couple times. Also, there is a really good decoy/bird carving show at RI audobon (sp?) in Bristol in the fall. Lots of carvers there, and a few demo's but no one selling tools, wood, etc, just their carvings. Alot of great talent there!

Thanks Gulf Coast for the calendar of shows.
I'm definitely trying to talk my other half into a trip south - we just
got a heaping helping of snow here in ATL. Too much for me.

Your welcome Ricky, supposed to warm up the end of next week. Welcome to the forum.
