The 15th Annual Ridgway Chainsaw Carvers Rendezvous
was held February 22 through March 1.
The event features talented artists from all around the world and they converge
on the small town of Ridgway, PA. The
artists utilize chainsaws and other types of carving/sanding tools to form
amazing art from pieces of wood. This
unique event has become a featured event of the Pennsylvania Wilds Region and
draws in thousands of people every year.
Possibly the highlight of the event was the large T-Rex dinosaur carving
that was on display in the Country Squirrel Outfitters parking lot. The event is capped off on the last Saturday with
a public auction where a piece of art from each carver is auctioned off for
sale. This gives people the opportunity
to bid on artwork and get great deals on one of a kind wooden carvings. If you haven’t had the chance to see this
event in action, you certainly need to plan to attend next February.
