Celebrated Los Angeles–based jewelry designer Daniela Villegas will lead a hands-on workshop, helping participants create mood boards and guiding them through the process of transforming their inspirations into tangible, executable designs. Villegas is known for incorporating natural elements—feathers, wood, porcupine quills—into her luxurious, one-of-a-kind pieces, which often take the form of insects such as beetles, centipedes, and scorpions. Workshop materials will be provided.
This program received federal support from the Latino Initiatives Pool, administered by the Smithsonian Latino Center.
