Students in this workshop will experiment with nontraditional coloring techniques and create a wearable jewelry piece. We’ll embrace low-cost color treatments such as powder coating, flocking, spray paint, colored pencils, and alternative materials to create rich, engaging jewelry—no need for expensive equipment. Demonstrations will include sawing, filing, cold connections, soldering, and tab settings. All levels. Lower metals studio. This workshop takes place in a first-floor walk-up studio that has partial access by a stair lift.
