Attention Woodcarvers Everywhere!

If you have a carving you're proud of, send it our way. Tell us your name, where you're from, the wood you used, and we'll display it on our site. We are a shrinking Community, but by sharing our styles and information, hopefully we can stem the tide of attrition.  Send your photo as a j.peg or PDF file. Remember to keep the file size small since web limitations are in place. Send to kscriv1@cox.net
Thanks, Ken Scrivner, web master.

The Eastern Oklahoma Woodcarvers Association, known as the EOWA, is a charitable non-profit organization dedicated to preserving, promoting and expanding the timeless art form of woodcarving. Established in 1975, the organization has sponsored an annual Show & Sale for the past 41 years.
It numbers among its members a number of nationally- acclaimed practitioners of this centuries-old art, including the late native American, Willard Stone, whose striking commissioned pieces are on display at the world-famous Gilcrease Museum, located in Tulsa, OK.

Welcome! We hope you will spend some time on our site and explore the wonderful world of wood carving. 

We are a splinter group, but not intentionally!
Broken Arrow woodcarver, Bill Huggins, instructs a first-time carver during the 2018 Woodcarvers Show/Sale & Folk Arts Festival. Free classes are offered both days during the event.
OUR MISSION
The Eastern Oklahoma Woodcarvers Association exists to preserve, promote, and perpetuate the timeless art of woodcarving for this and future generations through education, seminars, and weekly hands-on instruction.
