Join us for a hands-on summer jewelry camp where kids and teens ages 11-17 will learn real metalsmithing techniques in a fun, safe, and creative environment! Whether you come for just one day or the whole week, each session offers a new project and skill set—from forming and sawing to soldering and casting. Students will explore tools like hammers, torches, and jeweler’s saws while making their own wearable art alongside other young artists.
Here’s what we’re making each day:
Monday, June 16th – Forming on Copper – Start with a flat sheet of copper and transform it into a small vessel, like a bowl! Kids will learn how to hammer and shape metal—an exciting and foundational technique in metalsmithing. $15 Material Fee
Tuesday, June 17th – Sawing and Riveting – Design and saw out your own shape, then learn to cold-connect it to a backing plate with rivets. Mastering the jeweler’s saw is a big step toward creative freedom in jewelry making! $10 Material Fee
Wednesday, June 18th – Stacking Rings – Let’s stack them up! Make stackable rings in brass and copper. Learn how to size, solder, hammer texture, form and patina a beautiful stack of rings! $5 Material Fee
Thursday, June 19th – Chain Design – Create your own chain design by making and soldering jump rings. It’s both impressive and meditative—and by the end of the day, you’ll have your very own handmade chain. $5 Material Fee
Friday, June 20th – Sand Casting – Learn the amazing process of sand casting molten metal to create custom jewelry pieces. It’s approachable, exciting, and seriously cool. $20 Material Fee
