Last weekend (9/9/2023), Santa Clara Valley Carvers proudly joined the vibrant atmosphere of the Antique Autos event at History Park in San Jose, CA once again. Amidst the gleaming chrome and classic curves of hundreds of vintage cars, our woodworking enthusiasts found their niche, showcasing the timeless art of whittling and wood carving.

As visitors strolled through the event, our skilled members captivated audiences with live demonstrations of their craft. From delicately carved figurines to intricately whittled ornaments, each piece showcased the dedication and talent of our club.

Beyond our woodcarving booth, the event buzzed with activity, with craftsmen from various disciplines weaving, crocheting, and exhibiting their stamp collections. It was a celebration of creativity and passion, where attendees could immerse themselves in a world of handmade wonders.

Throughout the day, our club members welcomed guests with warm smiles and engaged in lively conversations, sharing insights into the artistry and techniques behind wood carving. It was a joy to witness the enthusiasm and curiosity of visitors as they explored our craft.

Under the summer sun, surrounded by the hum of engines and the scent of sawdust, the Antique Autos event provided the perfect backdrop for our community to come together and celebrate the enduring beauty of craftsmanship. We’re already looking forward to next year’s gathering, eager to continue sharing our love for wood carving with fellow enthusiasts.

Thank you to everyone who joined us at History Park for this memorable occasion. Until next time, keep carving and crafting!
