metalcyberspace — Fri, 14 Nov 2008 14:40:57 +0000

The Revere Academy awarded Jewelry Technician Diplomas to 25 students from their recent JT Intensive program. Each semester the JT Intensive commences with a juried competition. Each student presents an independent design project, which is a variation on a fabricated box ring, for consideration. The jurors had a difficult time selecting the winners as all of the submitted projects were beautifully made and showed excellent technical mastery. Otto Frei congratulates the winners and all of the 25 students who completed the Jewelry Technician Intensive program.

The following award-winning students received gift certificates donated by Otto Frei:

Kyle Greenman: Best Design

Fern Thaweechaithaworn: Technical Excellence
