End your summer vacation by spending five days experimenting with making jewelry. Through soldering, cold connections and basic metal fabrication (including bending, filing, piercing, and drilling), students can make and finish one-of-a-kind artwork and jewelry to wear home.

Try your hand at different techniques, such as using the hydraulic press to create volume, resin inlay for coloring, and bezel making to add stones or found objects. Come with ideas and finish up with a treasure trove of handmade jewelry.

This course is for anyone 13 or older -- Come on your own or bring a friend. Parent's and kids are all welcome.
