When: September 5-7th, 8am to done.
Where: Stannard, Vermont
Cost: $250 (The full cost of this class is $550- $650 Sliding Scale, $250 is the non-refundable deposit to hold your spot in the class) * Please reach out if you are looking for a scholarship or would like to pay with cash, check, or venmo. All is acceptable.
This is a three-day workshop transforming deerskin into buckskin. Buckskin is a soft, supple, buttery leather that is the most pliable, durable, and sustainable fabric that exists. You will learn the wet scrape method, brain softening, and punk wood smoke tanning. This is a physically intense skill that requires endurance. Woven into this class will be community conversation, ritual, interpersonal connection, and transformation. It is helpful if two participants work on one hide together and then leave with half of a hide!
