Introduction to Precious Metal Clay (PMC) Workshop 

Deb Munroe, Instructor

PMC contains particles of copper, water and binder.  The clay can be modeled by hand with tools and by pressing it into shallow open molds.  The clay object is fired in an electric kiln, transforming it into a solid cooper object.  The fired piece can be soldered and otherwise treated similarly to manufactured metal. Students will work with the PMC to make earrings, pendants and bracelets learning skills in texture and molding.  PMC allows creative spontaneity and can result in any style of jewelry.  No experience necessary.  For ages 16 and up.

2 Sessions:  Sat & Sun Sept 11 & 12  1-4 both days
Tuition: $65  + Materials: $25 (Includes 100 grams of metal clay and firing fee)
