Carve Cymru Chainsaw Carving Event

A range of beautiful wood carvings will be up for auction on Sunday afternoon.

The sculptures which will have been created over the three days of the festival by up to 24 international chainsaw carvers are likely to range in value from a few hundred to a few thousand pounds.

Come along and see these works of art taking shape - and stay to bid for one of them as the festival draws to a close. The Auction will start at 2pm on Sunday.

The sculptures which range in size from 5ft to 20ft can be displayed in your house or in your garden, or anywhere else you can think of.

Corporate buyers who might be looking for a centre-piece in their reception area or grounds can visit the festival and meet the carvers - either with a view to bidding for one of the sculptures or commissioning a specific piece.

Each of our carvers has agreed to donate a small sculpture to our nominated charities. The sculpture will be sold or raffled during the festival and the proceeds will go to the charity.

Note To Carvers:

Please contact us as soon as possible regarding Woodfest Wales 2008 - We will be limiting our numbers to 24 and will take into consideration the date carvers first express an interest in participating in our 2008 festival.
