Get excited for this TWO-part experience exclusively for our members! In September, we’ll visit Kelly at her booth at the Westport Art Fair. We'll also stroll through the show to admire the work of other local artists, and observe how they display, market, and sell their creations.
ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR, KELLY:
I’ve always loved making and creating things, and once I found metalsmithing in college, I was hooked. For me it is the perfect combination of creativity and science. I graduated with a BFA in metalsmithing from KU in 2003 and spent 2 years apprenticing as a bench jeweler at Kizer Cummings Jewelry. The combination of school learning and hands-on training in a jewelry store has given me a solid base of skills and knowledge from which I have built my own career in metalsmithing, as MeritMade. I look super forward to having you in class and sharing my love of metalsmithing with you.
