Olympic Driftwood Sculptors, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit group, hosts its driftwood show from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday-Sunday, March 12-13, at the Dungeness River Audubon Center, 2151 W. Hendrickson Road, Sequim.

Organizers expect 30-40 exhibitors and 60-70 sculptures on site. Driftwood artists will demonstrate their methods, with driftwood for sale. Photographs are welcomed and information on artisan classes is available. A raffle of “Spirit of the Olympics,” pictured, is offered to benefit college scholarships. Several members of the club crafted the piece.

This free show was rescheduled from Feb. 26-27 due to snowfall.

The group also is on display at the Museum & Arts Center, 175 W. Cedar St., during June. Olympic Driftwood Sculptors has about 70 members and can be found online at www.olympicdriftwoodsculptors.org.
