Carry a piece of the Yukon with you!Join us at Yukonstruct on Tuesday July 14th from 5pm to 7.30pm for this unique antler jewellery workshop, taught by experienced carver and artist Gary Tautenhahn.
Participants will get the opportunity to select up to three (3) pieces of Caribou, Moose or Deer antler segments, which they will then sand and shape, polish to perfection, and attach to hardware for a beautiful pendant or earring set as their final product.
This workshop will be hosted in Yukonstruct’s yard space, allowing participants to enjoy this quintessentially Yukon experience under the territory’s summer sun, and all participants will get the option of a beer, provided by Yukon Brewing, or a non-alcoholic option to enjoy while they work.
Makespace Under the Sun
Join us for a series of summer workshops under the sun at Yukonstruct’s Makespace! Come try your hand at something new, learn from Yukon makers and maybe enjoy a beer in the yard as you sew, craft, mend or make.
