2026 Featured Carver: 

Ken Kuhar

Lancaster County Wood Carvers President

Ken began carving in 2006 after having an interest for years in drawing caricatures. He started learning from books and articles and then was introduced to the Lancaster County Woodcarvers club and the Conewago Carvers club where he began taking a variety of seminars and classes. Ken currently serves as President and Newsletter Editor of the Lancaster County Wood Carvers. For all his efforts on behalf of the club, he was chosen as the 2025 John Herrington Distinguished Carver Award recipient. He enjoys sharing his passion for woodcarving with others, so be sure to stop by his table and say hello!
