About the Michigan Silversmiths Guild
The Michigan Silversmiths Guild was founded in 1948. Guild members include
craftpersons proficient in the fields of metalsmithing and jewelry, and serves to
broaden the knowledge of its members' craft and to facilitate communication with
other metalsmiths.
The Guild sponsors lectures and workshops by artists and teachers established in
their fields. These activities have included lectures and workshops covering
box construction, iron working, shell construction, plastics, repousse,
titanium, stone setting, casting, etc. The Guild also sponsors juried
exhibitions of work produced by members. Workshops are usually held on
Saturdays at the Center for Creative Studies, Detroit; Cranbrook Academy of Art,
Bloomfield Hills; Eastern Michigan University, Ypsilanti; Wayne State University, Detroit,
or the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Lectures and/or slide presentations are
held at any one of the above locations.
