Nicely worded Terry.

    I have attended SNAG conferences many years. The last two, I have
    not because the content of Clasp has been more inline of what
    Metalwerx needs. 

    SNAG is wonderful. It embraces the artistic spirit and is a visual
    delight of the imagination. If you love metalsmithing in all its
    splendor, this is a good conference for recharging your artistic
    batteries. Seeing up close and personal what people make in pushing
    the artistic boundaries of wearable art is a feast for the eyes. 

    Personally I believe the two conferences compliment each other
    beautifully. In March, I am heading to Savannah. I haven't been to
    SNAG for two years now and am looking forward to it. But I am looking
    forward to Clasp too, but for different reasons. 

    The communities of all three, Clasp, Orchid and SNAG have opened
    doors to what's possible, what's new. We are a community of artists
    traversing these paths of passion wanting to make what we do have
    meaning every day in our lives. We are also craftspeople wanting to
    make our craft better, solve puzzles with new and better tools.
