Date

Aug 23 – 29 2026

This course is designed to develop skills related to making silver jewelry. We will introduce jewelry tools and how to use them. We will explain silver soldering and discuss the torch. Surface embellishment(stamping, hammer techniques and hand engraving) will be demonstrated. Looking forward to your designing and problem solving. I am excited to share the idea of Contemporary Southwest Jewelry! The Ranch has a fully equipped silversmith shop. The surrounding environment will add inspiration to your work. 

GENERAL WORKSHOP HOURS:
Class schedule is 9:00 am to 12:00 pm and 1:00 pm to 5:00pm. There is NO evening class (As the afternoon goes by, students may tire and have accidents. I encourage students to explore the ranch, seek silence and recharge).
