Metal Heart Jewelry

The Studio is moving to 1720 Madison Ave NE Mpls! This is the Casket Arts Carriage House. Studio is #204. I will be moving in June and hope to be resuming classes in July. To help with the move contact me via email, studio time is being offered as comp time!

Metal Heart Jewelry is a jewelry making and classroom studio in White Bear Lake, Minnesota. Just 20 minutes north of St. Paul / Minneapolis, MN. If you are looking for a place to learn jewelrymaking, metalsmithing, stonesetting, enamelling, and lost wax casting, come visit Metal Heart Jewelry. If you are looking for a creative outlet, a lifechange, a relaxing hobby, a new enterprise, a place to create, learn and share ideas, come visit.

I am Kirk Sklar, I have been operating Metal Heart Jewelry since 2007, and I have been a teacher since 1995. I have a masters degree in fine arts and a bachelors degree in art history. My teaching experience includes several years at craft centers, high schools, and colleges.

Designing and making jewelry has become my life, and it has brought me in contact with many interesting and inspired people. Give yourself the gift of a jewelry class today. You can never leave an art studio with less than you entered.

Cheyenne River Sioux Ice Storm Disaster

You may have heard the Dakotas had terrible ice storms this past weekend. The ice has brought down over 2,000-3,000 utility poles down on the Cheyenne River Sioux Indian Reservation in South Dakota.

Electricity has been out for five days (since Friday). Crews are working feverishly, but it may be out for up to 30 days in some areas. With no electricity, no heat, no running water, and a wind chill below zero the situation is growing more difficult.

A way to help:

Goto Amazon.com and order

Non-perishable food, Cots, Heat sources (heaters & fuel), Camp stoves & fuel, Light sources: Lithium 1, 2 and 3 batteries for law enforcement, Lamps/Batteries/Lamp Oil, Toiletries, Toilet paper, Paper products for the shelters, Pampers/formula, Hand/baby wipes/Hand sanitizer

then ship to this address

Cheyenne River Sioux Tribal Chairman’s Office Attn: Ice Storm
PO Box 590
2001 Main Street (Tribal Offices)
Eagle Butte, SD 57625
605-964-4155

No contribution is too small, anything you can do will make a difference.

Thank you,
