ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
Explore jewelry making using Precious Metal Clay. PMC is clay made of metal particles, which allows you to sculpt and create pieces that become solid, fine silver when fired. Each student will be able to create a pair of small earrings and a charm or a bead. You will learn how to texture the clay, fire, patina and polish. All skill levels welcome.
Kits will be provided and will include: 1 package of PMC3 clay and the use of all tools necessary to make the pieces.
PLEASE NOTE: Limited seating available. An 80% refund will be issued if the participant cancels two weeks prior to the event. For cancellations made less than two weeks prior to the event, BRAHM will issue a refund IF the museum is able to fill the vacated spot.
