Ignite Jewelry Studios

About Our School –

Ignite Jewelry Studios is a vibrant and welcoming jewelry and metalsmithing studio located in Asheville’s River Arts District.

We provide workshops and classes for both beginners as well as experienced jewelry makers. We also feature a boutique jewelry gallery that offers a diverse collection of unique and contemporary handcrafted pieces made by a variety of local artisan jewelers’ for purchase.

Anyone (age appropriate) can join us for our Weekly Workshops- no experience necessary- and leave having created a piece of jewelry under the guidance of our skilled and fun instructors. Or join us for one of our Skills, Sessions, or  Guest Instructor classes and further your experience and knowledge in the metalsmithing field.

And lastly we offer a safe, creative, and supportive space for our resident jewelers. This select group of jewelers utilize the tools, equipment, and camaraderie to design and fabricate their individual work out of Ignite Jewelry Studios.
