ARTISTRY IN WOOD at Dayton, Ohio is one of the premier wood carving shows across the nation.  There are approximately two hundred wood carvers and wood workers  who show and sell their creations of art and craftsmanship at this two day show November 14 and 15, 2009.  http://www.daytoncarvers.com/ will give more details on Artistry in Wood.

Carvers from all across the United States will be represented while the quality and variety of carvings and woodwork provide something for anyone’s aesthetic appreciation.   Carvings entered into competition are of the highest quality providing the visitor with a sense of awe at the beauty and creativity of each variety of carvings.

Tool vendors and wood suppliers will be available to offer whatever the carver needs to enhance their wood carving and working experiences.  Demonstrations, youth woodworking activities, special exhibits, door prizes, raffle and silent auction add to the visitors’ interest.

Artistry in Wood is easy to find following the map at the left and there is plenty of free public parking with admission of $7.00 a day or $10.00 for two day pass.  There is plenty to see and do and if one has never been, then this would be a good year to come and see for yourself.  Come early, stay late to experience wood carving at its best.  When you come look for me in the southeast corner of the Expo Center and we will talk woodcarving (as if there was any other subject worth talking about.)
