Bring found objects to incorporate into jewelry!

1-Day Workshop

Date: Saturday, September 17, 2022

Time: 10am-5pm

Description: In this workshop, students will be encouraged to bring found objects of their own to incorporate into jewelry. This class will discuss a variety of ways that found objects can be repurposed and revitalized into a wearable object, such as a brooch, necklace, earrings, or rings. Individual guidance will be given based on chosen found material and project goal. Found object examples include, but are not limited to: shells, flat back stones, vintage tins, ceramic fragments, bone/teeth, vintage game pieces, buttons, and fabric remnants.

Tuition: $95 + $10 materials fee

Materials: Students should bring their own found materials to use in their work. Metals will be provided to complete pieces.

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