Dunnville Decoy Show
Held on the shores of the Grand River with the backdrop of the Dunnville Dam this 2nd annual event seeks to promote the history and practice of carving duck decoys in Dunnville (and surrounding area). Some of the most collectible Canadian duck decoys were carved in Haldimand County and have been sold at auction to collectors around the world. This event hopes to bring the local and regional eye to collecting and carving duck decoys.
The event will have a display showcasing historical/collectible carvers (such as Ken Anger, Cecil Anger, Myrl Smith, Munro Blackwell, Merle Franklin) as well as contemporary carvers (such as John Green, Don Hare, Les Stremble). The carving display will feature biographical information on carvers, style, and insight into the “Dunnville School” and collection provenance.
There will also be a vendor section for the sale of antique collectible decoys, carving supplies, and other outdoor and hunting offerings
The show offers tables featuring decoy carvers, private decoy collections, and vendors.
Small Admission Fee.
