ENAMELING DAY
ENAMELING DAY
Join Genevieve and others for this recurring monthly, one day to hone your skills in Enameling. This requires you to sign up for each date. Please do not show up expecting to participate as the alloted date may be full.
Please know that this day is meant specifically for enameling. And no instruction will be included.
Here are some dates that are currently setup for Enameling Day:
August 31, September 21, October 5 & November 9, 2024
Time: 11:00am-5pm
More dates will be added after the holidays
There are two levels of payment for this day:
#1 $60.00 covers enamel powders and some copper sheet for students to use. If you prefer to work in silver, then fine silver would be the material to discuss with Genevieve. The cost of silver will need to be discussed with Genevieve so that she can order what is needed. Know that the $60 fee will not cover the silver costs.
#2 $30.00 covers the fee incurred for studio use and firing costs of the kiln.
Please know that using enamel powders is very hazardous to your lungs if large amounts are inhaled. So PLEASE come to class with a mask to wear. An air purifier will be on at all times during class to maximize your safety.
Students will be asked to learn how to use the kiln and to fire their own works. They will also be asked to clean up the desk once the day is over for each person.
Cancellation Policy:
As Genevieve Flynn Studio prepares in advance and expends money to do so, the class fee is non-refundable. If an extraordinary situation arises that one cannot attend such as illness, injury, family emergency etc. Genevieve Flynn Studio will discuss appropriate measures in terms of refunds.
