Participants must attend all three workshop dates.

Learn the traditional art of moccasin-making with Anishinaabe artist Natalie Ortiz in this three-part workshop designed to teach hand-sewing leatherwork and beading techniques. Workshop facilitator Natalie Ortiz will guide participants through the full process, from start to finish, of creating their own custom moccasins from design, pattern-making, beadwork, and construction, to caring for the finished footwear. All tools, materials, and comprehensive instruction will be provided. Please note that missing one or more of the three sessions will likely result in an unfinished project. This course is designed for ages 12 +.
