Blackhawk Carving Club Events
Meeting Schedule
We meet every Wednesday at 9:00 am
until 12:00 noon at Ken Rock’s new facility at 625 Adams Street,
Rockford, IL. The location is next to and East
of Heritage Park on Rural Street. Travel Rural from North
Second St. (going East) or from the 5 point intersection at Rural and
Prospect St. (going West).
At our meetings, carvers often bring in work they have finished. We all get to see and appreciate their results. Friends and spouses of carvers are especially welcome to visit and meet carvers.
Mini
Lessons for 2022
We have started some mini carving lessons starting in January. They will be held on Wednesdays at KenRock during our usual Wednesday morning sessions. It is thought that a member will bring in the materials for a carving, woodburning, etc. and share their knowledge and help in completing the project.
We need some ideas for these mini
lessons and a brave volunteer to lead sessions. All
members of this club are very talented and many are especially talented in
their given style. Please feel free to submit ideas to
Richard Dunphy and volunteer to be a presenter. It will
take everyone to make this fun, informative, and improve our craft.
