Native American Basket Weaving Community Education Class Offered

May 7, 2008

Cerro Coso Community College will be offering a specialized class this summer with Instructor, Mary Louise “Weegie” Claw (Granddaughter of Renowned Chemehuevi Basket weaver Mary Lou Brown).
 
“Weegie” Claw is a master basket weaver who creates classic Native American baskets using split and whole willows, unicorn plant and other local resources.  She teaches traditional basket-making at Arizona Western College in Parker, AZ.
 
The Native American Basket weaving class will meet the following dates: June 7, 8, 14, 15, 28, July 5, 12, and 19. There will be no class on June 21. 
 
June 19-22 is the Annual Gathering of the California Indian Basketweavers Assn in Lemoore, CA. Students are welcome to attend this Gathering with Instructor at their own expense.
 
The classes will meet from 1:00pm – 5:00pm at the Tomo-Kahni State Historic Park in the Native American Resource Center Building, located in Sand Canyon 12 miles east of Tehachapi, CA.   The fee for the class is $200. Tuition payment is due before 10:00am June 7, 2008. This is a non-credit class.
 
Since some classes include a trip into the mountains for gathering materials, it is important that students arrive at the Native American Resource Center 30 minutes early for each class session. 
 
For more information on this Community Education class please call Cerro Coso Community College at 760-384-6100.
