Carol & Convergent Series Return!

Posted by C Scheftic on 2022/09/07

If you subscribe to my very-occasional newsletter, you have a clue as to why I’ve been quiet for a while. Overall, the reason isn’t important. What matters is that, beyond simple pandemic issues, I’m slowly getting back to business, with some new, upcoming events!

My First-Ever Solo Show!

Throughout September, 2022, I am so honored to be Cranberry Artists Network’s “Glass Case Artist”!

  • Cranberry Twp Municipal Center, 2525 Rochester Road, Cranberry Twp, PA.

While the show is running all month, I encourage local folks to join me for my Artist’s Reception. While you are welcome to just show up, it’d help me to have a clue if you’re planning to attend (since I’m trying to figure out how many light refreshment treats to bring!).

  • Tuesday, September 20, from 6:30 – 8:30 pm

Studio Sessions Return Next Month!

At the moment, I’m planning them as mostly-Second, now-mostly-Sunday events in my studio in the Wilkins School Community Center in Regent Square. These are times when I set up a little mini-show – I have only a handful of things on display but if there’s something in particular you’d like to see, let me know a day or two in advance and I can be sure to have that sort of thing to show you. I have one table set up so I can work on some chores, and students from my previous classes are welcome to come by and use my tools to do something of their own (as long as I have a couple days notice!). These are the dates I have set up so far:

  • Second Sunday, October 9, 1 to 5 pm
    (I’ll likely be cleaning up pieces I’ve brought back from the display case in Cranberry.)
  • Third Sunday, November 20, 1 to 5 pm
    (Can’t be the second one: see classes, below)
  • Second Sunday, December 11, 1 to 5 pm 
    (I may well extend the time for this one as we get closer to the holidays!)

New Classes Coming!

Regular readers here will know I’ve been involved with The Artsmiths of Pittsburgh for years now. They sell a good share of my pieces for me, and I teach classes there on how to make pieces along the lines of many of the ones I offer. They moved from Mt Lebanon to Carnegie early in 2020 (what timing!) and if you haven’t made it over to check out the new facility, you should! Here are the workshops I have set up there for this fall:

  • Sunday, October 23, Noon to 3:30 pm
    Textured Reversible Silver
    (pendant or earrings)
    Register Here
  • Sunday, November 13, Noon to 3:30 pm
    Tiny Silver Pendants 
    (make several: pendants-earring pieces-charms, for yourself and/or as gifts!)
    Register Here

Beyond These?

Who knows?! Let’s enjoy all of these for now, and see what happens next!
