Jewelry Class: Full Day Saturday

All alternate Saturday classes are taught through one-on-one instruction geared to your skill level and interests, whether you are a complete beginner or advanced metalsmith. Since our instructors work with you individually, you never have to worry about keeping up with the class that is moving too quickly or too slowly for your comfort.

Classes meet every other Saturday for a full day of class, 11am-2pm and 3pm-6pm, with an hour break for lunch from 2pm-3pm. You have your other Saturdays free for other activities and cut down on travel time.

Your instructors have years of team teaching experience and will guide you every step of the way. For every 4-5 students there is one teacher. That means in your scheduled class, there may be multiple teachers. If your teacher is busy helping another student, you can always ask another free teacher for help. This results in even more help available to you, when you need it.

• Learn in silver or gold, according to your skill level
• Learn in a semi-private class of 4-5 students per teacher
• Learn at your own pace
