About
Come by For the Love of Art and meet Mitchell Riley from Antler River Leather a leather artisan from Chippewas of the Thames First Nation. Mitchell will be doing live demonstrations and Q&A about hand sewing adult moccasins, baby moccasins, and necklace style medicine pouches.
These are all items that I can teach and I am currently hosting a class at For the Love of Art starting in October, making adult moccasins. Come visit us Saturday and check out the event.

For the Love of Art
FTLA recognizes the need to provide a means of inclusive and diversity, an outreach program for arts of all media. Our Mission: To unite the arts to neighbourhoods we serve. To engage and bring awareness of the arts within the local community. Our Goal: To develop a sustainable social enterprise which transforms neglected urban buildings into an artisans' hub, uniting the arts and the community. Our Vision: To enrich the artisan's hub with common spaces, shared resources, marketing, events and administration in an inclusive atmosphere to the benefit of the neighbourhood. We will provide programming and education in the arts, create employment for diverse citizens and will be accessible to people of all abilities, ages and background. For the Love of Art will encourage collaboration for public awareness and broadening participation in arts and culture.
