Step inside Carvers’ Guild in West Groton and discover the fascinating story behind one of New England’s most distinctive design and craft businesses. Housed in historic 19th-century mill buildings along the Squannacook River, Carvers’ Guild has been creating exceptional decorative mirrors in West Groton since 1970. Carl and Carol Canner founded the company, and their passion for design and craftsmanship transformed a small business into an internationally recognized maker of decorative mirrors.During this special behind-the-scenes tour, guests will learn about the history of the mill and Carvers’ Guild, then follow a mirror through its remarkable journey—from Carol Canner’s original design and prototype to molding, casting, woodworking, sanding, finishing, gilding, painting, and final assembly. The tour offers a rare glimpse into a working craft studio where design, artistry, and New England manufacturing continue to thrive.
