![]() Revisiting a highlight of my summer - teaching a 5 day mokume gane class as part of Metalwerx's "Summer with the Masters" in Boston, August 2024. It was an ambitious curriculum - fusing, patterning, AND making a sake cup, in only 5 days. But the 12 students who signed up for it were an amazing bunch and they tackled everything with enthusiasm and energy; it was a joy to behold. And we did it! Take a look at the photos to see them hard at work, but still laughing and having a great time. It was a delight to meet students I'd only taught online, but also to meet so many new faces. Friendships were forged, art was made! Shout out to the fabulous studio manager Will Vanaria who would magically roll out machines from a back room whenever I muttered it would be nice to have another press, rolling mill, shears, etc. And to Sean, who drove an hour each way to drop off his personal bandsaw for the class to use, though he didn't even take the class! And to the Board, who made me feel so welcomed and at home. I look forward to returning soon - Metalwerx is a top-notch place. Oh and five stars for the coffee maker, snacks, and filtered water!

What a fantastic workshop!! Anne Wolfe organized and taught this class so well…really putting herself in the students’ shoes to provide everything we need,, to continue at home, including fantastic reference material. When I become aware of a new Anne Wolfe workshop, I jump on it knowing that I am purchasing a class that will without question add skills and knowledge that will positively affect my journey as a metalsmith.
