I am looking for other jewelers and casters in this area - NYC,
Weehawken/Hoboken/Jersey City New Jersey. Right now I am at a
standstill regarding input from others when I have problems with
casting, etc. Going back to school isn’t an option, although I
would love to, since I cannot find any schools that deal directly
with metalsmithing in the immediate area. The NYC schools seem
to concentrate on art and art history.
Laura, there’s a guy who teaches casting classes at the
Westchester Art Workshop in White Plains who also teaches at a
school in Jersey City. His name is Ken McBain, give the Art
Center a call to get more 914-684-0094.
I am a jeweler in the NYC area (Queens). If I can help you out
in anything, give me an e-mail. If you are looking for schools,
sources, or anything in this area, just ask on Orchid. There are
a few of us out here and we discuss local jewelry things from
time to time.
