The Tri-State Woodcarvers Club was formed to promote
the appreciation and art of woodcarving through instruction,
exhibitions, demonstrations and workshops.
The Club was formed in 1985 and is headquartered
in Evansville, Indiana. The Club now supports over 65 woodcarvers
throughout the tri-state area.
Standards and rules are established by the officers
and the membership to uphold the consistency for shows, sales and
seminars organized by the club.
Many of the club members share their knowledge,
experience, time and talents to the club programs. These leaders
help in a variety of way to further the membership's knowledge.
The club also provides a library of books,
magazines, plans, and videotapes. A monthly newsletter is published,
as well as an annual directory of club members.
The club meets the second Tuesday of each month in the Banquet Hall at the Vanderburgh 4-H Center, 201 E. Boonville-New Harmony Road, Evansville, Indiana. The meeting starts with Carving 6PM – 7:30PM. The business part of the meeting starts at 7:30PM CST.
