This is a one day workshop, 10am to 5pm, instructed by Nate Johnson. Participants will be guided through the traditional way to process an ermine hide for use in future projects. The class will be held at Rail River folk School and is an inter-generational class. Materials and tools will be provided. There is no cost for this class, but registration is required as space is limited.
