Very interesting, and retty much only in Wisconsin!

"Wood chips flew this week at Jamie Doeren's art studio in Abrams, where more than 30 of his fellow chainsaw artists from all over the world were gathered for the fourth annual Carve-a-Palooza.

Award-winning artists from Japan, Germany, Belgium, Great Britain and throughout the U.S. were on hand for what is primarily intended as a social event for chainsaw carvers, but is also open to the public from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. today and Sunday.

People could watch the artists at work or wander through Doeren's sculpture garden for $5 per person or $15 per family. Proceeds will go for logs and chainsaw fuel, with any excess going toward a still-to-be-selected charity.

Doeren's studio is near the split between U.S. 41 and Wisconsin 141, at 3013 Cedar Lane in Abrams. Heading north on 41, take the Abrams exit at Oconto County D, then continue north on the east frontage road, which dead-ends at the carving site.

The event began Tuesday and ends Sunday." Source: Carve-a-palooza lures award-winning artists | greenbaypressgazette.com | Green Bay Press-Gazette
