Professional Ice Sculptures
For the first time, downtown Goshen hosts its annual ice-sculpture celebration in February. Visitors always enjoy watching professional ice carvers transform 300-pound blocks of ice into exquisite sculptures that defy gravity and imagination. The team of professional Michiana Ice Carvers are eager to chat with you about their work. So, don’t hesitate to ask them questions and learn more about this unusual art form.

Bringing the heat – look for fire dancers performing throughout the day, warming stations, and delicious hot chocolate, tea, coffee, and toddies at local cafés and bars.
