Leather ’80: the Society’s page from the exhibition catalogue

One sheet, typed: the Society’s own introduction to the Leather ’80 catalogue. The archive holds the same introduction from the 1974, 1976, 1978 and 1982 catalogues; this is the 1980 setting of it, and the branches it names — Barrie, Belleville, Hamilton, Norland, Toronto and Woodstock — are the six the Society had between Norland’s acceptance in April 1979 and Mississauga’s in 1984. A white sticker was laid over the end of the last line and is left as it is: the line stops at “The membership”, and what the sticker covers is not guessed at here.

The Canadian Society for Creative Leathercraft was founded in 1950 to provide guidance in improving the quality of leathercraft in Canada and in creating original design. Membership averages 225 including members from coast to coast in Canada, and several members in the U.S.A.

The Society encourages the formation of local branches anywhere in Canada. At present, Branches exist in Barrie, Belleville, Hamilton, Norland, Toronto and Woodstock. The branch competition for the Weston Trophy is a major event at the Annual Meeting. A graded system of membership gives the general members an opportunity to become Associates, and later Fellows of the Society. The Council of Fellows judge the work for sales, exhibitions and competitions. Members receive a quarterly bulletin called Canadian Leathercraft.

C.S.C.L. is affiliated with the Ontario Craft Council. Since 1964 C.S.C.L. has participated in the Arts, Crafts and Hobbies Show at the C.N.E. with an exhibition of work, sales, and demonstrations by the members.

The Chief objectives of the Society are:
-to improve the status of leathercraft by raising standards of design and craftsmanship
-to help anyone interested in any phase of the craft
-to raise standards of teaching and judging
-to conduct sales and exhibitions
-to co-operate with the other services in furthering the crafts
-to supply teachers, demonstrators and adjudicators upon request.

New members in the Canadian Society for Creative Leathercraft are always welcome. The membership
