Metalsmithing 101: The Basics Intensive Jan 10th and 11th

Arts & Culture Classes Workshop

What’s Happening?

Want to learn to make jewelry? This beginner friendly introductory metalsmithing course teaches the basics skills involved in making your own jewelry. Learn to use a variety of tools and equipment common in a jewelry studio.

This Intensive 16 hour 2 day workshop will teach many techniques including sawing, filing, polishing, soldering, bezel setting, textures, and more! $499 plus a $55 materials fee (paid separate at class)

Class Times: Saturday Jan 10th 9-5 and Sunday Jan 11th 9-5

Students will also have access to 4 Open Studio sessions to practice their skills (valid for 3 months from last day of class.) A knowledgable instructor is present during these sessions for questions and safety. Current Open Studio time: Wednesdays 10-4pm

Please know this will be a substantial amount of information over the two days and the intensity may not be ideal for everyone. Some jewelry making knowledge may be beneficial, but is not required. The course is designed to teach the skills through a series of jewelry pieces.

It is designed to teach techniques and skills rather than completing actual aesthetically pleasing pieces, but the goal is that everyone can complete 2-3 pieces of finished jewelry or more. Attending some or all Open Studios will absolutely ensure this and likely many more pieces!

*This is the next Metalsmithing 101 offered as an intensive on a weekend format. See February for the next 4-Part Series
