🌟 Shelby CarvePrize 2026🌟

December 23rd, 2025

Last year’s Shelby Chainsaw Carving Festival was incredible—and now we’re taking it up a notch! Introducing Shelby CarvePrize, a brand-new community art experience that will transform our downtown into an outdoor gallery of stunning chainsaw carvings.

🗓 Event Dates: May 15 – July 11
🎉 Culminates with the Chainsaw Carving Festival!

We’re looking for talented carvers—primarily from Michigan (but we’re open to others!)—to submit a carving for this exciting first year. We’re starting strong with the 20 most amazing pieces!

We’re looking for sponsors as well! We cannot do it without you!

Want to be part of something groundbreaking? 👉 https://shelbyvillage.com/community/carveprize-2026/ for details and submission info.

Let’s carve out something unforgettable together! 🪓✨
