SUMMARY:Jewelry Making with Janet Baskerville
DESCRIPTION:July 14 – 18\, 2025 \n1:00 – 3:00 pm \nAges 10-16 \nLocation:  Wallkill River Center for the Arts Gallery \nCost: $135 per student \nCome join jewelry artist Janet Baskerville for a week long immersive and fun jewelry making class.  We will work with different mediums like alcohol inks\, mod podge\, metal washers\, scrabble tiles\, Shrinky dinks\, macramé\, memory wire\, air dry clay\, wire for wire wrapping and lots and logs of beads.  We will create one of a kind earrings\, bracelets\, necklaces and key chains.  So bring your awesome creativity and let’s have fun! \nAll materials will be provided! \nArtist Statement: My ethnic heritage and experiences are my greatest influences.  I enjoy working three dimensionally\, as it is an intuitive process.  Jewelry is my passion and I like the tactile nature of combining various methods of construction\, such as forging metal\, stamping and etching metal\, wire wrapping and weaving\, beading\, resin casting and the inclusion of relic-like found objects and artifacts. I enjoy mixed-media collage and use paint\, paper\, fabric\, fibers\, resin\, wood and clay in my work as well. I am fascinated with the results when a combination of these materials and methods comes together in a completed piece to evoke a one of a kind ethnic feeling that tells a story. \n  \nSummer 2025 Welcome\, Check in & Procedures \nSummer 2025 Scholarship Form \nREFUND AND CANCELLATION POLICY
