Welcome to the School of Leather
Fifteen years ago, when our founder, Dr. Scott Hofert, embarked on his leather crafting journey, he faced a scarcity of learning opportunities in the field. Undeterred, he honed his skills through self-study and hands-on experience, gradually mastering the art of leatherwork. Now, with over a decade of expertise under his belt, Scott and his dedicated team at ColsenKeane Leather are excited to share their combined thirty-three years of knowledge and passion.
We're proud to introduce a comprehensive series of educational workshops designed to fill the gap Scott once encountered. These hands-on course offerings cater to all skill levels, from curious beginners to seasoned craftspeople looking to refine their techniques. Participants will benefit from ColsenKeane's wealth of experience, learning not just the technical aspects of leather crafting, but also gaining insights into the creative process and business aspects of the trade.
Our workshops cover a wide range of topics, including basic leather working techniques, hand-stitching techniques, pattern making, and even a glimpse into the intricacies of running a successful leather goods business. By offering these educational opportunities, we aim to nurture the next generation of leather artisans and contribute to the preservation and evolution of this time-honored craft.
