Ornament Making Workshop - Leather | Ickert | 9/27

Spend an afternoon in the studio crafting two beautiful leather holiday ornaments — one to bring home and hang on your own tree, and one to donate to the Creative Arts Center's Blue Yule Fundraiser. Working in leather, you'll learn to cut, tool, and finish keepsake ornaments with a warm, handmade character — the kind of pieces that become part of a family's holiday tradition for years to come.

Over the course of three hours, your instructor will guide you through the essential leatherworking techniques needed to complete both ornaments, with all tools and materials provided. No prior experience with leather craft is required — just a willingness to try your hand at something new and the satisfaction of walking away with two finished pieces you made yourself.

The second ornament you create will be donated to Blue Yule, CAC's annual fundraiser supporting the studio's mission of making art education accessible to our community. It's a chance to spend an afternoon making something with your hands, take home a piece you're proud of, and give back to the creative community that makes CAC possible — all in a single sitting.

All supplies included. Open to all skill levels. A companion Small Metals Ornament workshop runs alongside this one — check the class listings if you'd prefer to work in metal.
