Canadians Charles Lewton-Brain and Gregoré Morin are set to share their expertise at the Revere Academy of Jewelry Arts’ 14th Annual Masters Symposium.

Held from April 7 to 27 in San Francisco, Calif., the gathering will see 14 masters classes taught by well-known goldsmiths and other experts from around the globe.

Classes are open to students at all levels.

A master goldsmith and professor of art, Lewton-Brain shares his techniques for fold forming and will lead a class on fabricating catches, findings, and mechanisms, while Morin and his wife, Jennifer, will guide a class as they create a line of jewellery.

Other seminars include:
• lapidary and metalworking techniques by Michael Boyd;
• tips and tricks for designing elegant and efficiently made jewellery in multiples, dies, patterns, and keum-boo by Jayne Redman; and
• chasing and repoussé by Italian metalsmith Davide Bigazzie.
