RADICAL JEWELRY MAKEOVER (RJM) (January 26 - March 20, 2021) 

RJM is an Ethical Metalsmiths' innovative community mining project. The work, created by a community of jewelers, raises awareness of the connection between mining, metalsmithing, activism, collaboration, and art. It involves volunteer "miners," "smelters," "refiners," jewelers, and metalsmiths working together to create a new and transparent supply chain. RJM relies on local “mines” – donated jewelry – as a source of “raw” material.  The donated jewelry is then deconstructed to the original components, and reconstructed into wearable works of art by artists, students, and professionals. All of the one-of-a-kind jewelry on exhibition will be available for purchase.
