Jackalope or Traditional Rabbit Shoulder Mount Taxidermy Class
Date:Saturday, February 6th
Time: 12pm-6pm
Admission: $250

EXPERIENCE LEVEL-Beginner to Intermediate

Limited class size of 10 people

This class will introduce students to the process and techniques behind more advanced basic small mammal taxidermy. Students will learn how to skin, prep, preserve, mount, and position the animal.  Attention will be focused on how to properly split, turn, and position rabbit ears. Basic armatures will be used and students will be taught how to carve their own head forms. Students will learn how to make a custom body for their specimens using an old traditional taxidermy technique of wrapping a body. Using the carcass for reference, students will learn how to build up and craft the bodies. We will discuss how to properly mold items for taxidermy use at home. Students encouraged to bring in any props they may want to dress the animal up in. All specimens, materials, and tools for the class are provided. Each student will leave with his or her own finished mount.

Katie Innamorato is one of our taxidermists in residence and is a professionally trained taxidermy artist. She is an active MART and Garden State Taxidermist Association member. Her work has been featured on the TV shows "Oddities and Odd Folks Home," displayed at La Luz de Jesus Gallery in Los Angeles and various other galleries. She was recently published in the book Taxidermy Art by Robert Marbury and featured on Vice. She has also done demonstrations and lectures at the University of Wisconsin at Eau Claire and at The Institute Library in Connecticut.

We use NO harsh or dangerous chemicals.
Everyone will be provided with gloves.
All animals are disease free.
Bringing a snack and drink is encouraged.
Please bring your own boxes/bags to carry mounts home.

Animals are sourced through roadkill, scraps from other taxidermists, donations, abatement/nuisance work, pet industry casualties, frozen feeders, and discards from the food service industry. Nothing is ever killed specifically for our classes.
