Create your own handcrafted jewelry in this two-day etched brass workshop at Bluff Strokes Art Center in Dubuque, Iowa! Students will design and fabricate a custom pendant or pair of earrings using brass sheet metal. On Day 1, you’ll learn essential metalsmithing skills—cutting, filing, and sanding—before hand-drawing your unique design using Sharpie or acrylic paint pens. Your piece will be etched overnight, and on Day 2 you’ll assemble, finish, and polish your jewelry to take home. Perfect for beginners and creatives looking to explore metal arts.

All materials included.
