From backgrounds in etching for printmaking, jewelry artists on the side and day jobs as health coaches, transportation managers, native plant gardeners and in the behavioral health field, our participants have a diverse set of skills and interests.

Etching with saltwater is such a rewarding process because you get to see your designs come to life. Also, there’s something exhilarating about working with electricity and metal. Thanks to our guests for making the workshop such a fun experience!
