Kids Beginner Ice Carving (ages 8-15)

Join local artist Tommy 'Salami' O'Malley (in collaboration with the Girdwood Arts Institute) for a kid friendly ice carving workshop (recommended for kids ages 8-15). Participants will learn about the basics of ice carving and how to safely use hand tools while creating a fun seasonal ice sculpture to take home. Each participant must be accompanied by an adult (you do not need to buy a separate ticket).

Space is limited; please register ahead of time to secure a spot. Due to high demand this class will be offered twice (December 13th and January 10th). Participants will need to bring a set of warm waterproof gloves and appropriate clothing for standing outside for approximately 2 hours as they carve (workshop takes place completely outside).

What to bring to stay warm and dry!

  • Dress for winter! Wear layers, winter boots and a winter hat.

  • Insulated rubber gloves under winter gloves or mittens, or even plastic bags worn over mittens, will help to keep you dry and warm.

  • Extra gloves and mittens (to replace wet ones)

  • Hand warmers

  • Sunglasses or protective goggles

  • Drinking water, snack, and anything else you may need to stay warm
