The Swedish Dalecarlian, or Dala Horse started as a child’s plaything, but has evolved into a popular souvenir. They were traditionally hand-carved from wood, a pastime in historical Swedish winters. Many Dala horses from the village of Nusnäs in Sweden were painted red-orange, with decorations in white, blue, green and yellow.

Location: Outside on the lawn at Granary Arts, 86 North Main St. Ephraim.
This workshop is free and open to all.
