Greetings.

    You're in luck, we have one of the best adult-ed jewelry programs in
    the country. (I teach there, so this is a case of "even if I do say
    so myself...") 

    We do PMC periodically. We also do casting, fabrication,
    'southwestern jewelry', as well as a really good 'old world' enamel
    class and a whole slew of other more advanced topics on a "when we
    get enough people interested" basis. (We've done everything from
    granulation and Kum-boo to reactive metals and serious hydraulic
    forming.) I've been trying to get a silversmithing class off the
    ground for about a year, so one more person to add to the chorus
    would be really good. We also bring national artists in several
    times a year for weekend workshops. Santa Barbara's kind of an odd
    town, mostly due to cost of living, but there's a really nice,
    friendly bunch of people involved in the jewelry studio. It's a
    wonderful community, both the studio, and the town. 

    You're looking for the Santa Barbara City College Adult-Ed Wake
    Center. (What a mouthful, eh?) It's on Turnpike road, (Exit off the
    101) head towards the mountains, just past the first intersection,
    it'll be the school looking thing on your right. We're around back
    in room 8. We're currently 4 weeks into an 11 week term, but there
    will be plenty of room next time round. Feel free to contact me when
    you hit town, and I'll be happy to show you the studio. 

Welcome to the party.
-Brian Meek.
