Date Night at the Metalsmithing Studio with Jennifer Knollenberg

Class Description
Bring a friend or a date and learn basic metalsmithing skills in our studio. Design and create a ring for yourself or for each other. Make a textured or shiny band that can be stamped with initials or significant dates. Learn how to use metalsmith tools and techniques to do sawing, texturing, stamping, filing, finishing and soldering. Leave the studio with your finished ring!
Registration includes enough sterling silver and consumables (flux, solder, saw blades and fuel) to create one band ring. Additional materials are available for purchase.
Prerequisites
None. For beginners and those with little or no prior jewelry making experience.
ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR
Jennifer was born and raised in Boulder, Colorado. As is often the case, Jennifer did not begin her adult life as an artist. Her early roots began in chemistry and food science where she developed a love of creating art with food. Jennifer feels that her creative spark was truly ignited when she completed the graduate jeweler program at the Revere Academy of Jewelry Arts and apprenticed with a San Francisco area jewelry designer.
MAXIMUM NUMBER OF STUDENTS: 8 (four couples). Students will be required to sign a waiver. Participants must be 18 or older.
