I’m thinking about starting a place in my city where people can rent a workbench and use leatherworking tools and materials, but I’m not sure if there’s a real demand for it.

If you have any examples of:

• I would love to tell you about some actual leathercraft coworking and maker spaces that exist offline. I’m looking for places that have permanent, equipped workshops.
• I’m talking about places that offer regular in-person leatherworking classes or open studio time. I’m sure the people who work there would be delighted to welcome you and let you work on your projects.

Location and city don’t matter at all, anywhere in the world is fine. I know that in Japan some masters occasionally take apprentices, but I couldn’t find any public info about proper shared leather workshops 🙁 I would really appreciate any leads.
