Join us April 24–25 at The Great Passion Play in Eureka Springs, Arkansas for the 21st Annual Carving in the Ozarks — a full weekend of chainsaws, creativity, and seriously impressive talent.
Carving in the Ozarks was founded by David “Sleepy” Blankenship, and this year’s event is held in his memory as we continue the tradition he started, bringing together top chainsaw artists from all over to turn raw logs into jaw-dropping works of art right before your eyes. If you’ve never seen it live, trust us, it’s something you’ve got to experience in person!
🪵 Live Carving All Weekend
🪚 Carvings Available for Purchase
🎤 Live Auction Saturday at 4 PM

Bring the family, bring your friends, and come enjoy one of the most unique events in the Ozarks. There’s nothing quite like the sound of chainsaws and the smell of fresh-cut cedar in the mountain air.
