Come and learn to tan a sheepskin, the old way 🐏🌳
During this three-day weekend course, you will learn one of Scotland’s traditional hide tanning methods and be guided through the core stages of tanning using native tree barks. You’ll develop a practical and embodied understanding of this endangered craft, along with insight into other tanning traditions historically used in Scotland.
The course is rooted in hands-on craft and guided by a deep respect for the animal and the material it provides.
It will be hosted by Bethan Bray and Lisa Krause of Woodland Tannery, in collaboration with The Shieling Collective, taking place within the beautiful mountain landscape of Glen Strathfarrar.
