Discover what is so intriguing about the creation of jewelry from traditional techniques through contemporary design. We’ll help you explore your urge to create - and to develop the jewelry design and fabrication skills necessary for your career success. In a combination of classroom and studio workshops, you’ll learn the fundamental skills and metalsmithing techniques necessary to make jewelry.
You'll engage in class discussions, technical demonstrations and independent projects using traditional and non-traditional jewelers' processes and materials.
