Events Calendar

Art, Gourd and Woodcarving Shows

This is a schedule of Gourd Festivals, Woodcarving and Art shows we will be participating in as well as classes I will be teaching that have openings. I will be a vendor at most of the gourd and woodcarving shows and will be bringing all of our goodies withSawdust Connection Banner. me. If space is available I will also be exhibiting some of my work. I hope to see you there!

I will try to keep the calendar of events updated as soon as I schedule something. If there is a show in your area, please let me know about it. If you would like to schedule a class please contact me.

I have made a very difficult decision and have decided that effective January, 2009 I will be semi-retiring from teaching in an attempt at getting back to what is important...actually doing my art. I have been so busy with the business and teaching that I've had very little time to do what means so much to me so something had to go. While I love teaching, it is very hard work and due to health issues it really takes a toll on me to teach classes for 6 hrs. a day so I need to cut back.  I will be teaching a very limited number of classes during our travels but not to the extent I have been for the last 10 years. If you are interested in sponsoring a class in your area please contact me and I'll discuss the class with you.

When you come to the shows be sure to look for our banner!  Please stop by and say hello. I look forward to seeing you!

NOTICE: Due to a variety of factors including the economy, high cost of fuel & declining attendance at many shows we have been doing we have made a very difficult decision to cut back some of the shows we have been doing in the past. I will miss seeing so many of my old friends but it was a difficult but necessary decision.

I am hoping to add some new shows for the 2013 season so please stay tuned!
