Basket Classes Planned for 2020 

Basket artist Catherine Snyder from Potter County encouraging people to antler and shed hunt this spring. In August she will teach a basket class using those found items! The antler basket is just one of three classes planned at the Cameron County Chamber of Commerce & Artisan center by Snyder. Snyder uses no patterns, creating the usable works of art as she weaves.

On March 14 Snyder will teach an Easter Basket. Students will select their choice of shape and colors for the class. The price is $33.00 and class will be held 9am-2pm. Seating is limited to 10.

On June 20 the focus will be on creating a market basket or casserole carrier. Students may select the handle type and learn shaping techniques. The price is $45.00 and the class will be held from 9am-2pm. Only 10 students will be accepted in the class.

The antler basket class will be held August 15 from 9am-5pm. The cost is $60.00. Students asked to bring their antlers to the chamber prior to the class, so they may be prepared for use in a basket. The class is limited to 8 students.

The baskets are on display at the chamber office. Students may register online at Eventbrite, by phoning the office at 814-486-4314, or in person.
