A monthly newsletter is mailed to each member giving information on
meetings,
shows and other items of interest plus a new Carvin’ Corner.
Our guild is affiliated with the International Federation of
Leather Guilds.
A show is held once a year from which leather artists all over the
world compete.
This is a fun time as well as a chance to view all kinds of
leatherwork
and meet some of the master leather artists.
Small workshops are also held during this time that you may attend
for a fee.
The “masters” in leathercrafting usually conduct these small
workshops.
Dues to new members are determined by the quarter
of the year in which application and dues are received:
