Are carvers selling pieces during the event?

Yes! Carvers are selling directly to the public at their booth. These are finished pieces that are ready for display in your home. Payment methods vary from carver to carver, so be sure to ask. Most carvers are accepting credit or debit cards these days. Bring a vehicle suitable to take your selections home.

Will there be an auction at this year’s Rendezvous?

An auction will be held on Saturday afternoon following a quick carve event. Pieces created during that quick carve will be auctioned off. Credit cards will be accepted for payment at the auction.

Pieces that carvers work on throughout the week will not be auctioned off. Inquire with the carver directly for their plans for that piece.

Aside from the daily live carving, there will be food and craft vendors, beer/wine/liquor vendors, and live musical entertainment. On Thursday morning there will be two seminars presented by well respected carvers.
