“To see the craft of their neighbors some of the stuff that’s done here is beautiful we call it wood art if we look at it that way, it’s a piece of wood that lived at one time and we transformed it into a piece of art,” stated Krummick.
Carvers say they enjoy showing their work at the annual event.
“This is an excellent show to see wood carving, this is an art that’s a little different than most arts,” said master carver Richard Young.
