Lockets and Pendants Workshop

Cranbrook Academy of Art
Bloomfield Hills, Michigan
August 12–14, 2026

This three-day workshop introduces participants to the process of transforming flat metal into forms that can open, close, or move. Through demonstrations and hands-on practice, students will build foundational metalsmithing skills while creating a small wearable object with a simple moving mechanism. By the end of the session, participants will leave with a finished locket or pendant featuring a hinged or riveted mechanism. The cost is $800, materials included.
