Workshops & Clinics
The workshops and clinics at Art of the Cowgirl are designed to introduce and preserve traditional western arts and trades. The clinicians, presenters, and teachers have dedicated years, and even lifetimes, to honing their skills in their discipline of choice. From leather belt making to photography to cutting and more the workshop and clinic lineup has something for everyone.
All proceeds from the workshops and clinics help further the mission of the Art of the Cowgirl Foundation to promote and preserve the knowledge of a diverse and talented group of women.
