About the badges
Art
This merit badge concentrates on two-dimensional art, specifically drawing and painting in various media, including an introduction to design applications in the fields of graphic arts and industrial design, history and design principles, and how these fields relate to fine art.
Leatherwork
Scouts explore leather’s history and its endless uses. They make a useful leather item using the same kinds of raw materials our ancestors used, practice skills like hand-stitching, lacing, and braiding, and learn how to preserve and protect leather so it lasts a lifetime.
Signing up
Your unit leader registers each Scout for classes in MyCouncil when your week's registration opens in late April. Classes fill up, so list a second and third choice for each session.
