Waco Stone Sculpture Symposium 2008

The inaugural Waco Stone Sculpture Symposium is a week-long event featuring stone carvers from across the nation doing what they do best: carving! Invited artists set up shop in Indian Springs Park for one week in September, in conjunction with Waco Cultural Arts Fest. For more information contact laura.walton@windstream.net.

Waco residents and visitors can register for workshops to learn from respected professionals as they block, carve, and finish stone sculptures with a wide variety of tools and techniques.

Create an original stone sculpture from start to finish with instruction from nationally-known carvers, including:
