Dear Editor,
The Washington County Retired Educators Association wants to thank the Vermont Granite Museum, the executive director, Scott McLauglins and sculptor, Chris Miller for a great program for our meeting on October 11. Our group started by observing Chris working on the “Agriculture” statue then Chris was gracious enough to tell us about the process and to answer questions; Scott followed this up with a very informative tour of the museum, sharing his knowledge of quarrying in Vermont, the tools used over time and how many were improved and invented right here in Barre, Vermont.
We would encourage others to go and watch this historic carving of a piece of Vermont history now through mid November.
