Standing Rock Cultural Arts held the annual "Make Mine With Ice" ice carving event Saturday with participants from the and University of Akron sculpting teams.

The event is one of several sponsored by Standing Rock as part of the Downtown Innovative Community Events series.

The solid blocks of ice, transformed into sculptural masterpieces, remained long after the carvers stopped their chainsaws Saturday afternoon.
