Become a Stone Carvers Guild Member!

The Stone Carvers Guild is a group of independent working professional American stone carvers. We are working to ensure that carved stone will continue to play an important role in our built environment throughout the 21st century and beyond. Refer to the resources section of the guild website for definitions of “stone carver”. Note that we are geared towards stone carving, not towards other aspects of the stone trades or stone sculpting.

The Stone Carvers Guild is a 501(c)6 non-profit corporation organized under the laws of the State of Illinois.
