The Carving Studio and Sculpture Center is an educational facility dedicated to the creation and presentation of three-dimensional art, situated in an environment transformed by the historic marble industry. Since 1987 our organization has grown from two three-week stone carving sessions in the summer to year round course offerings and exhibitions in most sculptural media. Our Artist in Residence program complements instructional workshops and fosters cultural exchange; we currently have ongoing relationships with indigenous arts organizations in Kenya and Peru.

The workshop was established as a series of stone carving courses run from The National Stone Centre on the edge of Wirksworth in Derbyshire. My aim is to introduce as many people as possible, from all kinds of trades and backgrounds - young and not so young - to the joy of stone carving. Stone as a medium of expression is often considered too difficult to master without years of training. It is seldom seen as an option alongside other three dimensional artforms for the non-sculptor. Pottery may be embraced as a possibility while stone is considered to be beyond most people's capability. Living Stones Sculpture Workshop would like to alter that point of view. It can be fun too!
