The symbol above stands for, The Society of North American Goldsmiths. I’m a member of this group and am working on a volunteer project. The project is to build a jewelry/metalsmithing book resource list. I’m a book hog! I love love love books, that doesn’t mean I’ve read all the books I’ve bought (still working on that!).
Right now I’m also volunteering for another organization, The Ohio Jewelry and Metal Arts Guild. I’m working on the newsletter and it’s an exciting project for me! This guild is almost a year old and we’re working hard on having great topics and demos at every meeting. We also meet in different places so that we all learn where the art centers, bead shops and fun places are!
My point being, please volunteer and help an organization you love. I know many people are out of work and things are tough, but if we all volunteered just a little what a wonderful thing that would be. When you help others in some way it’s good for everyone! It gives you more to be Thankful for. Have a great time with family and friends!
