ONTARIO WOODCARVERS ASSOCIATION

The Ontario Woodcarvers Association brings together woodcarvers throughout the GTA and beyond to practice, develop, and share their craft. The organization runs workshops and classes for carvers of all skill levels, from beginners learning basic techniques to experienced artisans refining advanced methods. Members participate in exhibitions, competitions, and demonstrations that celebrate woodcarving as both an artistic and cultural practice. The association maintains a community space in Scarborough where carvers can access tools, materials, and instruction while building relationships with fellow practitioners. Through regular meetings, mentorship, and educational events, the organization preserves traditional woodcarving knowledge and encourages new generations to discover this hands-on art form.
