Anyone over 18 can apply for a BoMA scholarship: beginners, hobbyists, working metalsmiths, teachers, college students, even professional jewelers. You might be looking to learn the craft of metalsmithing for the first time, hoping to improve specific skills or considering a career change.

We offer two scholarships:

​For the 'Aspiring Metalsmith', or beginner, scholarship includes Level I & II Metalsmithing for Jewelry (two classes) plus 6 consecutive months of Open Studio time. These three multi-session classes teach all the basic skills necessary to make jewelry. This applicant must pay materials fees for both classes.

​The 'Experienced Metalsmith' can choose from our currently offered classes up to a value of $750 for a specific technique or project they'd like to learn, or to improve their skills plus 6 consecutive months of Open Studio time. Applicants for the 'Experienced Metalsmith' must be BoMA members ($45) for the current year as well as paying the cost of materials for all class(es).

Apply for either scholarship below. The first scholarships will be awarded in Q4 of 2023.
