In June 2012, Fio and the Sydney School of Jewellery will host master classes by international jeweller and entrepreneur Thomas Mann. The master class will be a rare opportunity for artists to be taught by an extremely creative and experienced jeweller who approaches jewellery design and teaching in a unique and innovative way.
Thomas Mann is celebrating 40 years as a professional artist, but he’s been making jewellery since the early 60s. A high school art department student teacher conducted a jewellery making semester in 1963 and Tom’s experience in that class fueled an intense interest that continues till this day.
Take this Design Master Class with Tom and pump up your jewellery design skill set with a jam packed demo and hands-on jewellery design throwdown. Tom will demonstrate principle techniques and then assist participants in developing their personal approaches to the mission of the class.
It’s a 2 day intensive exploration of your design potential. So, get ready for design throwdown!
When: Saturday June 16 – Sunday June 17, 10-4.30pm daily
Skill Level: Intermediate – Advanced Length: 3 days
Cost: $400 Standard, $370 Griffith University student or Fio enrolled student
