Experimental Enameling on Steel with Sharon Massey

December 3, 2022 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm

  • « Crafts & Drafts: Embossed Metal Ornaments with Jennie DiBeneditto
  • Sterling Stamped Stacking Rings with Sarah Sindler »
Learn several techniques for enameling on steel, including champleve and liquid form enamel

7-Hour Workshop

Date: Saturday, December 3, 2022

Time: 10am-5pm

Description: In this workshop, students will learn several techniques for enameling on steel, including champleve and liquid form enamel. Because working with steel is different than working with non-ferrous metals such as copper, students will learn a variety of techniques for cleaning and preparing the metal that are unique to steel.

Students will leave with several samples of techniques learned.

Tuition: $95 + $40 materials fee

Materials: Students should bring rubber gloves and a face mask. All other materials will be provided.

Location: Contemporary Craft (5645 Butler St., Pittsburgh, PA 15201)

COVID-19: In accordance with current CDC guidance – we are recommending all visitors wear a mask. Please note that the recommendation applies to teaching artists, resident artists, students and guests attending events taking place at CC.
