Jewelry Workshop with Kaylee Lopez

On Thursday, February 25th, LAMP hosted a jewelry workshop, open to parents, faculty, students and staff, with costume and jewelry designer, Kaylee Lopez. 

Staff and students heard Ms. Lopez discuss her experience in the arts with dance, music, costume design and jewelry. 

Ms. Lopez discussed safety and precautionary measures that are required when working with metal arts and allowed participants to create pendants of jewelry in which they were able to take home with them. Many which made multiple pieces of jewelry!  The workshop lasted 2 hours with great success!

We thank Kaylee Lopez, for taking the time to share your creative process with G. Holmes Braddock Senior High School!
