ice sculptures in your area
use the quicklinks below to jump to the right state listing to find ice sculptures in your area, maybe π¬
This is the closest to an ice sculptor directory that the site has for now. Also, my web designer likes to drink and binge Netflix, so it’s not even close to done. It’s also not exhaustive. It may never be, but dammit Jim, I’m going to try! The point though, is to possibly give you an idea who makes ice sculptures in your area. Oh, and also, it’s only for the U.S. right now. Sorry!
Btw, besides ice sculptures in your area, I try to find out if the sculptors listed also sell ice blocks, ice sculpting tools, and/or offer in-person ice sculpting instruction, since that’s in keeping with the overall goal/usefulness of this site. I also plan to add links and info about what to consider when you want to get an ice sculpture. (Wait, hold on! Let’s just get the directory close to complete first!)
Finally, keep in mind that ice sculptors can travel a bit. If there’s nobody right in your area, there’s probably someone nearby who can get to you. Post-pandemic, for example, I’ve had ice sculptures in 7 different states. So I will try to incorporate service areas, but that’s a little trickier. I mean, personally, I’ll take ice sculptures to Antarctica if you pay me enough Β But if you see parentheses around a (company), that’s part of their regular service area, not where they’re based.

(Dazzling Ice) They’re out of Loveland, so they can apparently get to Cheyenne with no problem.
use the quicklinks above to jump to the right state listing to find ice sculptures in your area
some additional info about the ice sculptures in your area list
If you’re listed here and the info isn’t accurate, please let me know so I can fix it! If you’re not listed here and want to be (and should be), also get in touch. But give me a bit of time to make some substantial progress before you get π€, please!
I was kinda starting with areas that I know well and working my way outward. I’m also prioritizing adding sculptors that offer instruction, sell ice blocks, or sell ice sculpting tools or equipment.
Also, there COULD be a reason why I’m hesitant to link to your website. I’m REALLY trying not to add links to websites that aren’t secure, meaning your address doesn’t start with “https” and doesn’t have the little lock icon π Getting that fixed is generally pretty simple and it protects your clients; your host should be able to help.
If I have no choice, for example you’re the only one making ice sculptures in your area, then I might suck it up and add your website link even if it’s not secure π€¨ But if you see a listing with no link, that’s probably what’s up. They’re there and making ice sculptures in your area (or their area, depending on where you are), but you should try calling them or something instead. If it’s your website and you’d rather list a facebook page or something, let me know.
Finally, if I know for CERTAIN that you misrepresent yourself on your website, then no way will I list you (and I’ll probably mutter bad things about you to myself π€¬) The most obvious example of this is if you’re posting other sculptors photos on your website. This has happened several times over the years and in one or two cases keeps happening. So, definitely then, listing your site here is NOT happening! A lack of artistic and/or business integrity is about the quickest way for to get me to ignore you and your ice art. I’m not going to post bad things about you; karma will take care of that in most cases.Β
