The Community Learning & Studio Pass (CLASP) is a program designed to support our jewelry students, volunteers, and teaching artists as a community of learners.

Goals

Through CLASP, we seek to create and cultivate:

  • A welcoming and inspiring learning environment where everyone feels the spark of creativity, connection, and a sense of belonging.

  • Opportunities for students to meaningfully pursue personal learning goals, while supporting each other’s growth as artisans.

  • Learning opportunities–classes, workshops, and gatherings–that reflect and promote the questions, ideas, and expertise of our core community members, and CraftStudies’ mission and strategic objectives.

  • Regularly contribute and share your questions and ideas for learning topics through community forums.
