Caution: Moving Parts w/ Adam Atkinson

All Levels $60-$120 Materials and Studio Fees*

Learn the basics and beyond to create beautiful mechanisms in your work. Mechanical connections and movable parts make jewelry wearable and functional, but in this workshop, you’ll also learn how to add a little flair to your designs. Pin mechanisms for brooches, necklace findings, basic hollow forms, and hinges will be covered.

Participants will leave with a series of small samples and finished work using the demonstrated techniques. Experience with basic soldering is helpful, but not required.

*Materials and studio fees are charged to students based on studio usage and materials Touchstone is providing at the request of the instructor. Additionally, some instructors may also require that you bring certain materials and tools with you, in which case a list will be provided. Final cost of these fees will be posted at least two weeks ahead of the workshop to be paid in full prior to check-in.
