Scott Cahaly Graduated from the University of Vermont with a degree in fine arts in the late 90s. Upon graduation he moved into the carving community in Central Vermont. While working as a resident sculptor at the Vermont Marble Exhibit, he carved a 5000 pound block of Vermont Marble which can be seen in front of the Armory Art Center in Somerville MA. In 2000 Scott relocated to the Boston area where he started exhibiting his work in many galleries and universities around town. He is a member of The New England Sculptors Association and has been teaching stone sculpture for just over two decades! First at the Decordova Museum School, then in 2010 he founded Scott's Stone Carving Classes which now resides in the renovated Depot Train Station in Bedford MA. His teaching approach is well regarded and he seeks to unlock his students fascination for the stone carving process."
