**Canceled due to BARN-wide closure. 3/13 SK**

Take your skills to the next level with this Enameling Lab!

This is a great opportunity for students to work on independent projects with questions and guidance offered by an instructor.  You can finally finish those pieces of jewelry you have set aside because you have questions on how to proceed or maybe you need a refresher on a particular skill.  Get tips and tricks, advice and encouragement, as well as technical demonstrations during this class.

Details:

• Prerequisite: This class is for students who have completed the Intro to Enameling class. 
• $10 Enamel consumables materials fee is included in your registration.
• If minimum enrollment of 3 students has not been met, BARN reserves the right to cancel the class.
• To get the most out of this class, it is recommended to prepare your metal in advance so you can focus on sifting techniques and kiln use.
• Due to the safety requirements for using dry enamel, Enameling is not offered during regular open studio time.

• Students please bring:

1. Any current projects you are working on and want to finish
   
2. Design questions, procedure & techniques questions
