Charms 2

Class Description

Taught by Ashley Khirea Wahba.

We love charms. For tens of thousands of years, charms have been collected to serve as talisman for protection, as commemoration, as mementos and souvenirs, and given and received as gifts; as a celebration of our lives and who we are and what is important to us.

We will be honing our skills and expanding our arsenal of processes with a tasting menu that includes bails and riveted connections, deeper explorations of wax working featuring cast-in-place stones, and experimentally combining fabrication techniques to create a variety of small personal treasures.

This course is a continuation of Charms 1, though intermediate level students are also welcome. This course is open to students with prior jewelry experience. Our Welcome to BKMW: Jewelry course provides this instruction.

Class size 4 – 12 students.

All students receive a 50% discount on hourly bench rentals throughout the duration of their course.

Refunds & Credit

Please email us at info@bkmetalworks.com to withdraw from class. Withdrawals from class more than 7 days prior to the start of the class will receive a full refund for the class minus a 10% processing fee. If cancellation occurs 3-6 days prior to the class, we will provide a 50% refund. Cancellations 48 hours or less receive a 25% refund. Refunds will not be provided for no-shows or same-day cancellations.

We do not refund tuition for classes that students miss due to their own circumstances. There will be no refunds once the class begins in any circumstance, nor can we transfer you to a later semester. Students enrolled in multi-session studio courses (excluding workshops and intensives) may make-up missed class sessions during open studio hours for up to two weeks after the last class meeting.

We reserve the right to cancel or discontinue any class, in which case you may choose to receive a refund, apply the class credit towards a different course, or receive a tuition credit for future use. Tuition credits are valid for up to one year. Refunds will be issued within 30 days.
