What a wonderful way to spend a Sunday afternoon!

What a wonderful way to spend a Sunday afternoon! Modoc Nation citizens, employees, and a citizen of the Cherokee Nation were provided materials and instruction on making a shawl. Instructors Carolyn Nott and Bill Nott shared instructions and protocols regarding a shawl. Thank you to the Pathways to Community Living Project provided by the Oklahoma Health Care Authority for making this class a reality. A second shawl class will be announced in the near future. We hope to see you there.
