On June 6 from 2-4pm and June 26 from 2-4pm, learn to make your own mocs in a two-part Puckertoe Moccasin Making Class led by Museum of the Cherokee People Director of Collections & Exhibitions Evan Mathis.

Participants can expect to be able to make one pair of plain leather moccasins. The first class will consist of a brief historical overview of puckertoe moccasins, followed by patternmaking and cutting leather and materials. In the second class, participants will construct their moccasins.

This workshop is open to enrolled members of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians. Participants must purchase their own materials: leather (approximately $90-120), white latigo soles (approximately $20), sharp scissors, sinew, a small awl, lighter, and size 7 Glover needles.

Registration is limited to 10 people. To view the full workshop description and sign up, please visit https://bit.ly/3QNWusD. If you are unable to successfully register, the workshop is full.
