Leather Coaster & Tooling Workshop

Your child (or you!) can dive into the creative world of leatherworking at this beginner-friendly workshop. You'll start by learning how to prepare leather and move into the satisfying process of tooling—using stamps and mallets to press custom designs into vegetable-tanned leather. The instructors will walk you through proper technique while keeping things accessible for first-timers. By the end, you'll have created two finished coasters decorated with your own designs, plus you'll learn the professional-looking finishing touches that make your work shine. All supplies are provided, so just show up ready to learn and make something you'll actually use at home. Whether you're introducing your family to a new hobby or looking for a hands-on afternoon activity, this class welcomes anyone without prior experience. It's a great way to explore a traditional craft while walking away with functional art.
