Portraits Carved in Snow

By: Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum on January 28th, 2015

See photos, from starting block to finished marvel, of Team USA Snow Sculptors as they create “Mount Snowmore.” Celebrating a 25-year partnership with the Woodson Art Museum,  Mike Martino, Tom Queoff, and Mike Sponholtz carved their portraits in snow, Mount Rushmore style, last weekend.

Enjoy daytime views and gallery visits or drive by at night to see the snow sculpture illuminated. Take inspiration from 50 Greatest National Geographic Photographs; bring your camera to capture Mount Snowmore at sunset and post your photos on the Museum’s Facebook page.

Don’t delay; winter weather can be fickle. See the 2015 snow sculpture while it’s at its finest.
