Early June will witness the annual gathering of spoon carvers from Minnesota and beyond. Artisans, artists and spoon enthusiasts will gather at Burns Park and the Milan Village Arts School to carve, learn and share their passion for the humble spoon, an international symbol of family, meals and friendship.

Friday evening is set aside solely for spoon carving time. On Saturday, there will be demonstrations from renowned carvers and a potluck party in the evening. Registration is only $10, so join us for a weekend of demonstrations, friendship and music. Just come to watch or bring your spoons and carving tools. All levels of experience welcome and absolute beginners will be well cared for.

For questions, please contact the Milan Village Arts School at 320-734-4807 or mvas@fedteldirect.net.

Spoon Gathering made possible by grants from the State Arts Board of Minnesota and the Laura Jane Musser Fund.
