The World Ice Art Championships is an ice sculpting contest in Fairbanks, Alaska put on by Ice Alaska, a non-profit corporation started in 1989. The contest is the largest of its kind in the world and attended by more than 100 sculptors from 30 different countries every year.〔(Sculpture that melts in spring | csmonitor.com )〕 The contest also draws tens of thousands of spectators; in 2004, 48,000 people from more than 28 countries passed through the park's gates.〔(Travel Video )〕 ==History==
Ice Alaska put on its first ice art championship in 1991; it featured 16 sculpting teams and lasted a week. Today the event lasts a month and features 75 teams from around the world.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Past events )〕 Through 2011, the ice festival took place on a site across the Chena River from Pioneer Park, which the organizers leased from the Alaska Railroad. In 2012 the event moved to a new location, the George Horner Ice Art Park. Ice blocks are harvested from an 80-foot-deep pond called O'Grady Pond Too; the ice is so clear it is referred to as "arctic diamond".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Harvest )〕 In addition to sculptures on view, the event features a Kids Park sculpted out of ice, including ice slides, an ice maze, an ice rink, and spinning cups.
