In this free community art class, neighborhood artist Stephen Diefel will teach you how to design, stamp, carve, and finish a hand-tooled leather piece to take home. You must purchase your own project kit of your choice from Tandy Leather or Rocky Mountain Leather in advance and bring it to class. Those who don't bring their own kit will use a keychain or coaster kit provided by the studio. The studio will provide stamps, mallets, and boards. If you would like to learn and practice leather carving, please bring your own swivel knife with your name on it. 

(You may request up to $20 from the studio to help you with your leather craft kit purchase. No one will be excluded if they can't afford to purchase a kit on their own. To request reimbursement, fill out this form: https://forms.monday.com/forms/38e6c4cefaae4d4fcb2fe806b97826c6?r=use1)
