21st Century Student Makes Wonderful Jewelry

Mia Wilhite, one of the students in the 21st Century "Art of Jewelry Design" classes in Athens, GA, has made some wonderful jewelry for the upcoming MCAAM Jewelry Trunk Show. Mia was one of the top sellers at the first show in November. She has an eye for color and attention to detail... good traits for a jewelry designer. Congratulations, Mia, on your beautiful designs!

21st Century Students study Morocco

21st Century students at Clarke Central & Cedar Shoals 
are studying the culture and traditions of Morocco. Morocco is a mosaic of cultures, tribes, influences, and colors. The jewelry draws on a wealth of traditions. The jewelry there is full of colorful beads, engraved florals, enamel beads...in a variety of designs.

                                 These colorful designs have a real bohemian quality popular today

Trinkets Jewelry Trunk Show at MCAAM

Trinkets' Jewelry Trunk show at the MCAAM was a success! I was so honored to be the featured artist at the show.  I was also proud of my 21st Century jewelry-making classes at Cedar Shoals and Clarke Central High Schools in Athens, Georgia. The students have been studying Africa and working on their portfolios of tribal and statement jewelry.  Many of their pieces were sold at the show.  The classes have partnered with the Museum to do two more shows in February and May.
