Welcome to the Atlanta Jewelry Maker's meetup! My name is Brian Gibney and I am the founder of Amalgam Arts, a jewelry studio in Atlanta, close to Decatur. Our meetups will be held at the Amalgam studio at 3172 E. Ponce de Leon Ave, 30079.

We're starting to have a great core of people coming to our meetups, but beginners are ALWAYS welcome! Thanks to all who came last time! December's Meetup will be Earring Making. Learn how to make sterling silver earrings in just one afternoon!! The cost of this workshop is $35 (cash, check...AND credit card!) and includes silver, instruction in the use of the torch, metal forming, and polishing, and light snacks and drink. If you decide you want stones you can choose from our in-house selections (stones are an additional $10). Please feel free to view our gallery, but know that you're not limited to these specific designs.


The atmospheres at AMALGAM is a comfortable, casual, and productive environment. In addition you can view our jewelery for sale and learn about our other classes, not to mention meet other aspiring and professional jewelers to see what all of your neighbors are up to! Feel free to bring friends and family...it's the perfect opportunity to make a piece of jewelry to give to a loved one...or keep for yourself! Minors are welcome, but must be accompanied by an adult at all times. Please feel free to contact me at amalgam.arts@gmail.com if you have any questions. I look forward to seeing you there! -Brian

I've gotten a lot of feedback about the group and have tweeked the meetups a bit. Hopefully they'll work for more people. As you can see, I've changed the time and day of our meetup...we now meet Sundays from 12-4pm. Hopefully this will give you guys more time to enjoy your weekend. I've also had a request to bring back the ring workshop (for some of our newer folks) and have a pendant-making workshop.

Our September Meetup will be earring-making. Learn how to make elegant, sterling silver earrings in just a few short hours! The cost of this workshop is $35 (cash or check only) and includes silver, instruction in the use of the torch, metal forming, and polishing, and light snacks and drink. If you decide you want to set a stone in your ring you can choose from our selection of cabochons in-house (stones and settings cost an additional $10). As always, there are a few examples on our website-- click here to view.

Today, Saturday March 3, from 3-6pm, Amalgam Arts is hosting a Bead and Stone Trunk Sale featuring two local artists. Nancy Antley is a talented lapidary artist and will be selling her hand cut cabochons (see pics in above link) and will be offering free quotes on custom stone cutting. Nadine Lawson is the owner of Seven Seas Beads and will be bringing almost an entire store's worth of semi-precious stone, crystal, and pearl beads and findings to our studio. Mix and match both elements for your next, funky necklace. If you can make time I highly recommend it! See you there. -Brian
