Woodcarver's Pavilion in Frankenmuth

The woodcarver's pavilion is an interesting focal point in one of Frankenmuth's parks. Located on Main Street alongside the river, it represents various fairy tales of German origin in Zehnder Park. The beautiful carvings were done by members of Frankenmuth's guild and date back to 1986.

Wooden Quilt in Royal Oak Public Library

Three cheers for the Metro Carvers of Michigan who have created a uniquely carved wooden quilt which is displayed on the wall of the Royal Oak Public Library. Each of the 30 squares was created by a different member, except Jack Crifasi of Hazel Park, who has two designs, the State Capitol and the State seal. They are intricate carvings that show depth and beauty and some of the delightful highlights of Michigan. This artifact is now 19 years old.
