What is enameling?
We will learn all about the process in this workshop; enameled jewelry is metal coated with very fine glass dust, which is then fired in a kiln to melt it and bind it to the surface of the metal.
All students will have their choice of pre-cut metal prepared by the instructor, and then will learn how to clean the metal, sift their enamel onto the piece, and fire it in the kiln! You will walk away with a completed piece of jewelry using the colors of your choice.
This may sound complicated, and we definitely recommend bringing a notebook, but this is a beginner-friendly workshop!
Age 18+
Please bring with you:

Notebook
Close-toed shoes
Full-length pants, and no loose-fitting clothes

A calendar has been created called the This is Kingsport events calendar which will serve as a non-public forum to provide citizens with information about social and organizational gatherings held within the city. The city will disseminate information to the public through this online calendar about social and organizational gatherings which are conducted or promoted by community partners with which the city currently has partnership agreements. Additionally, social or organizational gatherings held on city owned property to which the public at large is invited will be published on this calendar.
Each year the city enters into partnership agreements with multiple community partners some of whom in turn support the city by organizing events or promoting events of members and affiliates. By creating a common source for the dissemination of information about community events the city will be furthering its support of those community partners which in turn support the city. Moreover, the city wishes to and will benefit from highlighting gatherings which will be of benefit and enjoyment to the public.
Community partners may communicate their events or those which they promote to the city which will disseminate the information through the event calendar. Furthermore, the city of Kingsport will publish on the calendar those community events which are held on city property. In order to achieve the city’s goals only those events described herein will be published on the This is Kingsport event calendar which will be curated by city staff.
