    Join one of LLL's favorite Wofford Faculty members as she shares some spooky stories. In this 45-minute presentation she will delve into three cases where we have the ‘spooky’ story, the less than spooky history, and then the interesting questions that these famous stories raise about how we view women in history and even today.

    Design and create what you've dreamed of but can never find in the stores. Make jewelry to wear (or give as a gift) that no one else has! We have a huge selection of stones and jewelry findings to empower you on your journey of jewelry design. No experience needed and all levels are welcome. All supplies are included. Consider bringing old or broken jewelry to incorporate into your new pieces. We generally have time to make earrings and a necklace or bracelet. 

    There will be a $30 materials fee added to your registration to cover the cost of all materials used to make your jewelry during the event.
