Hellooooo Fellow Makers!

Regardless of your medium, and regardless of what you attend (or don't attend), I'd really appreciate hearing from you! I'm part of a group that's working on evaluating the content, format, and structure of…

Ganoksin office and home in Thailand are flooded. They need your help !
When disaster strikes one of our instant urges is to want to do something, to help that person in need in a meaningful way. Get help straight to them without bureaucracy taking half of it away.

What's happening with Radical Jewelry Makeover - Santa Fe!
Hi,
Right now we are working with the Santa Fe community to bring together student and professional jewelers for the October Makeover.

We are looking for a house to rent while in Santa Fe (at a non-profit rate (as close to free as possible)) so that all of our project assistants and documentarians can stay under one roof. And we are yes, fundraising. We…

SNAG Toronto part 3
I come from a very different background than most at the conference. I apprenticed with a self taught flutemaker.

Whenever a speaker was introduced, their education highlights were listed along with the schools they were…See More
