SUMMARY:Lockets and Pendants Three-Day Workshop ( Canceled)
DESCRIPTION:This three-day workshop introduces participants to the process of transforming flat metal into forms that can open\, close\, or move. Through demonstrations and hands-on practice\, students will build foundational metalsmithing skills while creating a small wearable object with a simple moving mechanism. By the end of the session\, participants will leave with a finished locket or pendant featuring a hinged or riveted mechanism.  \n In this workshop\, you will:  \n\nShape sheet metal into dimensional forms. \n\n\nCut and refine edges using basic metalsmithing tools. \n\n\nCreate simple rivets or hinges that allow movement. \n\n\nPractice introductory soldering techniques. \n\n\nComplete finishing and assembly to create a wearable piece. \n\nThis workshop has been cancelled. \n

SUMMARY:Chain Making Two-Day Workshop (SOLD OUT)
DESCRIPTION:This two-day workshop introduces participants to the fundamentals of chain making\, exploring how repeating handmade links create both structure and visual rhythm. Through demonstrations and guided practice\, students will learn essential metalsmithing techniques while constructing a functional chain that can be worn or used as an accessory. By the end of the session\, participants will leave with a completed chain that can be worn as a necklace or bracelet\, or used as a keychain.  \n In this workshop\, you will:  \n\nForm consistent jump rings from metal wire. \n\n\nSaw and cut rings for clean\, precise links. \n\n\nSolder jump rings closed to create a continuous chain. \n\n\nExperiment with surface textures and finishes. \n\n\nFabricate a simple functional closure. \n\nThis work shop is sold out! \nInstructor:Current Cranbrook Academy of Art Graduate student Megan Kerr\, who approaches jewelry with a strong technical focus and a commitment to clear\, practical skill-building. In addition to her studies at Cranbrook\, she holds a BFA in Metal from SUNY New Paltz.   \nInstructor Language: English \n Skill Level: This workshop is open to beginners and advanced students\, age 18+.  \nMax. participants: 7  \n Location: Metalsmithing department of Cranbrook Academy of Art in the New Studios Building.  \nParking: Cranbrook Art Museum Parking Lot.  \n Dates: Thursday\, July 23 and Friday\, July 24\, 2026  \n Time: 10am–2pm each day  \n Food/Beverage: Snacks provided. The Academy also has water bottle refill stations and vending machines near the Metalsmithing department.  \n Cost: $600.00 USD total\, for both days* Materials included   \n *If the workshop does not meet the minimum number of participants\, it will be canceled\, and any purchases will be fully refunded.
