Attention Minnesota Fish CarversMy name is Vicki Willard and I'm the editor of the MN Taxidermy newsletter. My husband Jim Willard is the current president.
This year one of our judges is Clark Schreibeis, a world class fish carver. He will be judging our fish category. But since he is also a fish carving judge, we'd like to invite your members who are fish carvers to our show. They can bring a piece and be judged on it and receive a critique. He will also be putting on a seminar in composition.
I would like to get a member list of any fish carvers you have. I will send a postcard to them with the information. Our show is scheduled for April 8-11 in Rochester. This is the first year we've had a fish judge who is also a wood carver.
I'd like to get the member list as soon as possible. If you have any questions, please e-mail willardstaxidermy@hotmail.com or call me at 507-482-9453.
Thank you!

Hi,
 My Mom gave me this little (3"x51/2") pipe in 1968. I have no idea
when it was carved.
Do you know if there are any collectors interested in buying items
like this?
It says "Duluth, Minn" on the nose.
I would appreciate any advice! Margy Can anyone help her out? E-Mail me and I'll forward it to Margy

WelcometoMinnesota Wood Carvers Association |
| |
| The Minnesota Wood Carvers Association was founded in 1964 in Minneapolis, MN.
After just two meetings, the eight members grew to fifty and became charter members.
The first years the MWCA was centered in Minneapolis and as time passed many new members joined the MWCA
from around the state. In short, five chapters where formed and now the MWCA has members throughout the state and are in the process of adding new members and chapters. MWCA's membership continues to grow instate and around the world. MWCAs membership is comprised of carvers, young and old, beginners to established professionals. We come from all walks of life, each with his or her own talent. Each with their own way of bringing life out of a piece of wood, whether it be by chip carving, relief carving, caricature carving etc. From birds to fish, flowers to mammals, from 1 inch to 6 foot all have the same common kinship. Love of the worlds oldest form of art, the willingness to share their perspective talent, with fellow carvers and the world. The comrade and fellowship is enjoyed by all who attend our monthly chapter meetings. Life long friendships and treasures are shared and enjoyed by all. |
