A wonderful project that I happen to be a fan of in the Beautiful Berkshires of Massachusetts. Over three hundred Volunteers have been working on building, carving and painting over thirty horses to be placed on a vintage refurbished carousel with beautiful art work from local artists and artisans. The project is amazing! The volunteers at the workshop are kind and friendly and love to share their wealth of information about the history of carousels and horse creation. The horses are gorgeous and everyone cannot wait to see it spinning at the beginning of 2016. Stop by and see the magic and the horses they create in the workshop.

The Berkshire Carousel workshop is a gem.
This project has been underway for 10 years involving thousands of volunteer hours.
The horses begin as blocks of wood glued up to begin the carving process.
After the design process the carvers tackle the wood blocks turning them into master pieces.
The painting crew working from a color selection pallet bring them to life.
The carousels itself will be located in a new building located on Center Street in downtown Pittsfield.
Ground breaking took place this June (2015) with construction to begin in July.
Anticipated completion by the end of the year.
Please stop by the work shop and visit the crew.
There is always room for more volunteers…
