About

*This open studio has a prerequisite. Please see below.

Focused Open Studio for Enameling in BARN’s fully-equipped Jewelry and Fine Metals Studio provides BARN members and the jewelry community a collaborative environment to pursue self-directed work, whether it’s to finish projects from classes or to work on independent projects. This is not a class and no formal instruction will be given. Please see details below.

Some metals are available for purchase (please bring cash or check). Ask the studio monitor for assistance.

A trained safety monitor is always on duty.
