Canada 150: Carved in the Canadian Shield

Four artists from three countries visited Haliburton for a three week sculpture symposium in 2017 in celebration of Dysart 150, Ontario 150, and Canada 150. Beginning with four blocks of limestone, each artist was tasked with creating a piece that reflected the theme of carving on the Canadian Shield.

The artists worked at the Haliburton School of Art and Design’s  stone carving a blacksmith workshop for three weeks. The public  was welcome to come watch the artists at work.
