Deer Skin Tanning Course

A three-day intensive course with Dr Theresa Emmerich Kamper and assisted by Caroline Ross.

Before the advent of modern tanning agents, humans were turning raw skin into usable leather products using very basic techniques and materials. Learn to produce incredibly soft, strong and durable leather from raw animal skin using one of human kind’s earliest tanning technologies! Utilizing materials readily available in the surrounding environment, walk through the steps of this transformation. Discover the progression of this process from raw skin to beautiful, usable, finished leather.

Stay on-site in one of our historic buildings for an additional fee.

Staggered payments can be arranged.
