BJC Vitrine Exhibition
Apply For A Scholarship
This Spring!

The Baltimore Jewelry Center is excited to invite artists from our vibrant community to display their work in our front hallway vitrine gallery! The exhibition will run from mid-May through December 2025, and we are especially eager to feature the creative talents of current and former students from the Baltimore and greater DMV area.

Applications are open through May 4, 2025.

Do you want to take a class with us but can't quite make it happen financially? We have five full and two partial scholarships available for our upcoming Spring Session (April - June, 2025). Scholarships can be applied to any class or workshops, including online classes. The recipients of these scholarships will be awarded full tuition for one Spring Class and studio rental relative to the duration of the class. 

Applications are open through March 14, 2025.
Up Next In The Gallery: Enameling Reimagined

Stop by the gallery next Friday to see Rachel Kedinger's solo exhibition, Enameling Reimagined.

Enameling Reimagined is an exhibition of works by Rachel Kedinger. The exhibition aims to showcase and highlight many forms of enamelware, some that have been damaged and forgotten, and others cherished beyond their intended use. Kedinger has taken these objects and transformed them into more personal, intentional pieces. These vintage cups, bowls, pots, and pans have been paired up with original works made by Kedinger. She takes inspiration from historical wares and recreates them using her own forms. The wide use of color and pattern are informed by the historical references combined with Kedinger’s contemporary vision. With a display likened to a kitchen cabinet, these objects are meant to be admired, reused and worn just as much as the originals.

The exhibition will be on view starting March 21, with an opening reception from 5-8 PM.

Apply for the
BJC Teaching Fellowship!
Open Call:
BJC Graduate Exhibition

Are you an emerging jewelry educator? A metalsmith looking to develop your teaching skillset in a vibrant community of makers? You might be the BJC's next Teaching Fellow!

The BJC is offering a three-year teaching fellowship to start in August 2025! In addition to gaining teaching experience, the selected fellow will develop pedagogical skills, build leadership experience, receive mentorship from experienced educators, and play an influential part of a vibrant educational community.

Applications are open through April 25, 2025.

We are excited to launch the call for our second annual Baltimore Jewelry Center Graduate show!

This exhibition will feature the work of emerging jewelers and metalsmiths as they complete their formal education while also acting as an archive and spotlight for the work being created by recent graduates. The goal of this annual exhibition is to highlight the work that is being produced by graduating jewelers and metalsmiths using an open and inclusive framework, with the desire to capture the depth and breadth of what is currently being created in the field. 

Applications are open through May 25, 2025.
