Stephanie,

    If you're actually staying in San Francisco, one of the best-known
    wirework teachers, Kate Ferrant-Richbourg, now has a store there,
    called Beadissimo, where she teaches classes. You can Google it for a
    class schedule. 

    I have studied with two great teachers, near but not in San
    Francisco: Lisa Claxton, who teaches at Baubles and Beads in Berkeley
    and whose classes fill up very quickly (but, if you get on the wait
    list, and stay flexible, you can often get in at the last minute);
    and Eve Navarro, formerly of Baubles and Beads, who now teaches out
    of her home in Novato, which is in north Marin County. Eve also does
    private lessons. If you want to get in touch with her, email me off
    list. And, if you'd like to have coffee some time this summer, email
    me anyway--if I can't make it to SF, it will give you an excuse to
    take the wonderful ferry ride to Vallejo. 

    Have fun!

    PS: to Tiffany, I am sorry to say that the Susan Cummins Gallery
    closed--a truly heartbreaking event. And the supplier in Sausalito is
    called Makens, but they're very tiny--I like going there, but some
    people might feel claustrophobic in their 2 x 4 "waiting room." Also,
    compared to Otto Frei, they're pretty limited as to tools, etc.
