San Diego Classes - Winter/Spring 2008
 

If the class you want is full, please email Christine at christine@jatayu.com to be put on the waiting list in case of a cancellation.

My approach to teaching is to help you develop both technical skills, and design skills. Like a bird, both wings are needed to soar through the air in this delightful adventure of making wire jewelry. You will learn wire techniques to create a specific project. And, you will become acquainted with design principles, such as color, balance, movement, negative space, and texture. I am especially interested in working with you to develop your own unique style.

If you are coming from out of town, taking classes with us is pretty easy, especially if you stay at the Holiday Inn Express in Old Town. They have a free shuttle from the airport to the hotel. The hotel is about a block and a half north of our studio, and there are oodles of restaurants and shops within walking distance.

 
We have added a very talented artist, Pattie Phipps, to our class offerings. This semester she is teaching 3 classes in fine silver metal clay. Please see bio statement from Pattie.

Cancellation Policy: If you need to cancel your participation in a class, you will be given credit to attend a future class of the same length provided you cancel at least 2 weeks prior to your scheduled class. Cancellation fee is $10.00. Your fee will be returned in full if Connie needs to cancel the class.
 

Airport and Hotel Information: We have one airport, San Diego International Airport, at Lindbergh Field. A taxi costs about $20 and will take about 20 minutes to get to class. It is less costly by shuttle but less predictable on how long the drive will take. Regarding hotel reservations, people tell me making reservations on line is often less expensive. Here is a hotel in Old Town that will shuttle you to and from the airport. We will also transport you to and from class.

Holiday Inn Express, Old Town
This hotel is conveniently located 1 block from your classroom in Old Town. Unless you bring your whole studio with you, you should be able to walk to and from class easily. The hotel provides free airport shuttle. Many yummy restaurants are within walking distance. You can make reservations by calling the hotel at 619-299-7400. During the summer months it is more difficult to obtain a reservation. 3900 Old Town Avenue, San Diego CA 92110.

La Quinta Inn, Old Town
This hotel is located 3.5 blocks from the classroom. It offers a complementary continental breakfast, free parking and a swimming pool. Phone: 619-291-5837. 2380 Moore St, San Diego CA 92110
