The Jewelry Studio is equipped with all the tools necessary for both casting and smithing. In the summer of 2011, the jewelry studio space was expanded by converting recycled bowling alley lanes into table tops. The result is a fresh looking facility with ample room to express your creativity. Class completion is required before permission to use the studio is granted, so register for a class during the first two weeks of each quarter to take advantage of this once in a lifetime opportunity.
