Information
Spend the day learning to melt and form silver. You will be taught and shown how to sand cast and learn how to drop cast into water, cous cous and broom. There will be objects to cast on the day but why not bring your own.
Students are encouraged to bring their own silver for melting on the day but there will be silver and silver grain to buy.
Why not treat a friend or family member to this workshop — or come along together for a fun, creative day? If you catch the jewellery-making bug, the Guild also offers a range of term-time jewellery classes to choose from — perfect for continuing your new hobby and skills!
Come along, get creative with us at the Guild of Lifelong Learning.
