Pellettieri Stone Carvers’ Academy is proud to be bringing new vitality to the stone carving tradition by training four U.S. Military veterans in a four-month, full-time, paid apprenticeship program.

We will be in the last month of the program at the time of the Craft In Focus Festival and the carvings made by the trainees will be on display.  You may even get a chance to meet them and hear from them about their experiences and the impact that a traditional craft is having on their lives.
