Splint Seat Workshop
The
St Lawrence County Historical Association will offer a splint-seat weaving

House Red Barn. Parking is available in the back, beside the barn’s
main entrance. Carlton Stickney is the instructor.
The cost is $28 for SLCHA members, $38 for nonmembers. Preregistration and prepayment are required by Wednesday, March 14. To register send your name, address, phone number and nonrefundable payment to SLCHA, PO Box 8, Canton, NY 13617. For more information call SLCHA at 315-386-8133 or e-mail.

an average size chair is included in the cost of the workshop; participants

and a small water container.
