Trevor Brant (Mohawk) and Hayden Haynes (Seneca) will conduct demonstrations in antler carving. Trevor Brant uses Haudenosaunee stories to offer a narrative element to his sculptures.  In addition to antler work, Brant crafts walking sticks, cradleboards, snowsnakes, drums and horn rattles. Haynes'  sculptures have been acquired for the Seneca-Iroquois National Museum collection where he is a featured artist.
