Breckenridge Fine Arts Center is creating an opportunity to see a living exhibit, presented by the Picketville Chapter of the Daughters of the Republic of Texas.

Seventh and eighth-grade students were taken to the exhibit on Friday, March 6, to see first hand how butter is made, how baskets are made by a woman who inherited the knowledge from her grandmother and mother and has baskets that are 100 years old.
