Immerse yourself in the world of natural and traditional skills in this 2 day Deep Dive Into Fish Skin Tanning Workshop. You’ll learn about the significance of this ancestral skill around the world, cultivate a deeper relationship with salmon, and learn very practical and traditional ways of transforming raw fish skins into leather. We will cover the complete tanning process using different tannin sources and methods and explore the incredible world of natural dyes. This is an introductory course but you will leave with a depth of understanding that will enable you to make fish leather in your own home tannery (kitchen) for use in your own creative and practical projects!
No experience necessary and all supplies and materials are provided.
