    I have attended Adult Night school in the Philadelphia area for
    jewelry. Having attended the beginners jewelry class numerous
    times I have not been able to get advanced instruction.  I have
    incorporated gems/stones into either pendants, earrings and done
    reticulation.  I'm looking to learn other techniques and improve
    upon my finishing technique/knowledge.  

    I have moved from Philadelphia, PA a year ago to Jacksonville, FL
    but have been unsuccessful in finding jewelry classes in the local
    area. 

    I would like to move to the Arizona area but have been searching the
    Phoenix area for jewelry instruction.  I come across the local
    colleges of Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, Yavapai
    College in Prescott, Eastern Arizona Uinversity in Tucson.  However
    in my endeavors of researching the internet for community/art
    centers in the Arizona area and I had come across your website.  

    I was wondering if anyone could take some time out of their busy
    schedule to help assist a new jeweler in locating further studies in
    jewelry/silversmithing. 

    Presently,I am not looking for workshops.  I find they are generally
    a few hours for one or two days. I have been informed about the
    Mesa, Glendale and Phoenix city recreation centers however the
    classes are held during the day time. 

    Would anyone know of any art centers other than the colleges in the
    Arizona area? (Perhaps the classes run for approx 3 hrs, one night a
    week, for 8 - 10 weeks. 

    Does the high school district have any Adult Night School curriculum
    that teaches jewelry? 

    Which colleges in Arizona could you recommend that has the best
    comprehensive classes to learn in a relatively short period of time?
    I plan to eventually sell my pieces (hobbyist/entrepreneur). 

    Any help would be much appreciated.
