beginners mole taxidermy

Learn the amazing process of taxidermy here at Moth Studios. This is a beginners class, where Sherene will teach you the process of skinning, cleaning and manikin making before putting your mole back together.

We will supply all specimens, tools, props & bases but please do bring along your own props if you would like to! Glass bell jars will be available inside the studio for £20 each, if you would like to keep your mole protected when its at home.

A special, unusual and challenging workshop right in the city centre. Something different to do with your weekend that’s for sure! Unfortunately due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we can no longer serve you tea’s & coffee’s during the day. More information about Health & Safety can be found below.
