This camp provides a safe and creative environment where kids and teens have the opportunity to learn fundamental metalsmithing techniques using copper, brass and silver. The class is led by professional artist and educator Lindsay Sanchez. Under her guidance, students will increase fine motor skills while learning to make sculptural jewelry pieces. They will learn the ancient art of casting, sawing, filing, drilling and finishing skills, and more. Students will create multiple pieces throughout the week and be encouraged to develop their own design skills.
