Burlington Sculptors & Carvers Guild

Sculptors & Carvers Guild

Whether you are a beginner/novice, intermediate or an award-winning sculptor, carver or pyrographer, we welcome you to join our guild. We sculpt and carve in all mediums, including wood, bark, stone, plaster, clay and wire. We carve and burn (pyrography) everything from folk art, chip, intarsia, relief and caricature to canes, birds, wildfowl, wildlife and bowls. Our members display and compete across the region.

Our Objectives

  • To bring people together who have a common interest in carving and sculpting in a variety of media

  • To provide opportunities to share ideas and enthusiasm for the art form

  • To provide facilities for further development of carving and sculpting skills

  • To promote appreciation for carving and sculpting in the community
