Jewelry   

ACE jewelry classes don't resemble those you might take at summer camp in any way! Our artisans help students create true works of art using high-quality tools and materials. Make your own expressive piece using items such as sea glass, learn how to string beads, or even repurpose your old costume jewelry into something brand-new!
