Create a project a day in this exploration of jewelry fabrication! Each day will introduce new tools, equipment and techniques using wire and sheet forms of sterling silver, copper and nu-gold. Forged rings, bangles or cuffs, kinetic earrings and pendants are among some of the projects you’ll create. Using a shot plate, wire work, hydraulic press, soldering, and metal texturing are just a few of the skills you’ll be introduced to. Enjoy afternoons in our well-equipped metals studio, learn a new skill, and create handmade jewelry you’ll love to wear. A supply fee payable at registration will include all materials, including sterling silver for some projects! All levels welcome. Ages 16+
