Noah's Ark


The Noahs Ark project is being organised by the Geisler Moroder Carving School in Austria www.schnitzschule.com.          It will consist of an Exhibition in Austria of carvings from all over the world and commences in the Autumn 2006.  Visitors to the Exhibition will contribute to a charity called SOS Childrens Villages,  see web site www.sos-childrensvillages.org    Basically it gives orphanned children a place to live and be brought up in a stable environment. 

           

We made it on to page 122 of the Sept / Oct issue of Chip Chats.    All the carvings shown were produced by club members

             

In August 2008 we sent a further 9 carvings in memory of George Moore who had been Secretary of the group when he died earlier in the year.      George had been to the school in Austria and brought the idea of this project to the club.   He is sadly missed.
