"Join us for an in-depth, hands-on taxidermy workshop where participants will create a two-headed mouse of their very own to take home. Participants will learn how to skin, flesh, and create a form for taxidermy, as well as preservation techniques and how to care for a finished piece.
All needed materials and tools are provided in the class, however, participants are encouraged to bring their own props and anything they would like to use in their piece!
All specimens are legally and ethically obtained. No animals were harmed for the purpose of this class.
