In collaboration with SNAG’s (Society of North American Goldsmiths) 51st Conference happening in San Diego this year, Sparks Gallery is hosting a showcase of jewelry. Do you have a piece of jewelry that holds a special place in your heart? Share its story with us! San Diego is a city rich in diverse stories, and we invite you to contribute to this tapestry by sharing your most treasured jewelry and the narratives they carry.
Whether it’s a family heirloom passed down through generations, a token of love and friendship, or something that marks a significant moment in your life, we want to hear about it. Your jewelry might be a necklace, ring, bracelet, earrings, or any other adornment that holds sentimental value.
Submissions can be emailed to natalie@sparksgallery.com by 11:59 pm on May 1st, 2024 and selected artists will be notified on May 10th.
Selected stories and jewelry will be modeled by YOU and photographed on you in a community exhibition at our gallery on June 6th, from 5-8pm. This is a free, one day show. Everyone is welcome to attend.
