Greetings all,

    I am a metalsmith who has been off the bench for way too long - and
    I am looking to start working again.  I recently moved to NW
    Washington DC from Vancouver and am looking for schools, open
    studios, etc. where I could find a place to do some work evenings and
    weekends. 

    Although my skills are/were reasonably advanced, I would be willing
    to take some classes if that was a requirement for access to a space
    - I also have all my own tools and could make a contribution to
    shared equipment if someone had a corner they could spare. I work
    mostly in silver and copper with a lot of forging, forming, riveting
    and roll-printing. 

    Since this can be considered just a <shudder> hobby for the moment,
    I can't justify full-fledged studio space but I would appreciate any
    information you might be able to offer.  Hopefully my next post will
    be to ask for suppliers! 

Thanks.
Peter
