Curt Soine to participate for 16th year in the Meander Art Crawl

If you ask Meander artist Curt Soine how he began his journey to becoming a wood craftsman, he will tell you, “I used to carve when I was a kid in Boy Scouts. Fast forward to around 1983 when I asked my wife what she wanted for her upcoming birthday and she pointed to a swan carving in a magazine. It was $400 and I thought that doesn’t look so hard, I’ll just carve one myself. That started it. A person learns a lot over a 40-year timespan.”
