EVERYONE IS WELCOME!!!

We encourage carvers’ partners to join us in the carving building for other non-carving activities. Midland Mall, Movie theatre, golf courses and the Dow Art/flower garden are all close by.  We want you to enjoy yourself while your partner is carving or if so inclined, try your hand in one of our learning classes.  Come and enjoy the week and have FUN with us.

The fair center will be available to us late Sunday afternoon.  The committee and helpers will arrange the tables and chairs so that the instructors can put out their displays and arrange their equipment early Sunday evening.  We will register early birds, and hand out
