Woodcarver crafts lectern medallion for UVM Aiken Lecture
Chelsea woodcarver Robert W. Huston created a 14 inch round rock maple lectern medallion for the Ira Allen Chapel at the University of Vermont. The piece honors retiring Senator George D. Aiken as the $250000 Aiken Lectures fund was announced. Huston, a 28 year old Ohio native now in Chelsea, spoke of his rise from sign painter to woodcarver. A Vermont seal carved by Huston also hung in Senator Aiken’s Washington office for two years.
