Live in the Bronx? Interested in the Bronx? The International Center of Photography is hosting a student photography exhibition focusing on photos of the Bronx. The 'I Love the Bronx' show opened this week at Garrison Avenue in the Bronx.
Focusing on South Brooklyn, the opening reception for 'Lost in Transition: South Brooklyn, Williamsburg & Coney Island' is 2/10/08 at the Brooklyn Historical Society.
It's a quiet weekend for art and craft events.... a good time to consider applying for a blacksmith scholarship at the John Campbell Folk School or a chance to have your work appear in a craft book from Lark Publishing.
If you're interested in learning to sew, now is the perfect time to sign up for a 'Design your own tote' sewing class at Etsy Labs; a three week Tuesday-afternoon class beginning February 12th.

Jewelry Workshop at Etsy
On February 3rd, Etsy Labs had a beginner's jewelry workshop with Danielle, aka PreciousPups.Etsy.com which I attended with about five other women. I got to meet some great ladies - one of whom, was BrooklynButterfly.Etsy.com, another member of The {NewNew} Street Team (it was great to meet you!).
I do some jewelry on the side but really wanted to brush up on my technique - and this class was perfect for that. Danielle went over the basics of wire working, wrapping and polishing using the flex shaft. I learned that a bic pen is the perfect size to form ear wires and that I need to get myself some polishing compound! I go back next week for a mini workshop on soldering and the torch - I can't wait!
