Members from MAG will run participatory metal arts and jewelry workshops such as fold-forming, making woven chain, and helping to make a 12'x27' art installation from recycled pencils. In between workshops, live demos will be given on working with Argentium silver, and on the ancient Korean technique of Keum-boo. A Recycled Jewelry Exhibition, displayed in MAG's hand-wrought steel floor cases, will showcase members' artwork.
