By the end of the session, participants will have the knowledge to make basic leather gear.

"It's great to know that I am part of a feminist/ activist
oriented space in the Bay Area. Working with artists and knowing more
about specific artists dealing with issues on Sex, Gender and Politics
is very inspiring for me. I am in all out awe and support "
