Tutor: Tina Yates Summer School Monday 25th - Wednesday 27th July 2022 10am - 4pm each day £168 plus materials, including refreshments and a two course lunch each day The aim of this course is to be able to start designing and producing your own jewellery. Everyone should be able to leave at the end of the three days with their own handmade jewellery. For those who are total beginners, you will start with the principles of soldering, and you will make a textured ring. For those who have already done some simple jewellery making, the first day will be spent revising and assessing your current skill set. At the end of the day, we will discuss basic design skills, and what you would like to make on days 2 and 3. Materials extra, payable to tutor. We are delighted to offer both of these wonderful courses, lead by Tina. To book please either call us on 01954 288751 or email community@astreacottenham.org, and we can send your further details.  |
