*****Special Guest: Michael Higgins, Chainsaw Sculpture and Environmental Artist

Throughout the day, Higgins kept the audience guessing and captivated as he worked on a tree truck with his chainsaws. The end result: An Uncle Sam sculpture

Sponsored by:  

Higgins offers a program to schools and organizations called "Chainsaws in the School Yard." The interactive program connects his business to the basic curriculum principles learned from personal school experience. It's a stimulating and motivating lesson in practicality, relevance and the importance of paying attention and completing high school. He is also available for commissioned work for private and public use.  For more information about Michael Higgins and his programs, contact the East Providence Area Chamber at 401.438.1212
