About this this time last year I got to attend the SNAG conference in Savannah, Georgia. If you haven't heard of SNAG, they are the awesome organization that supports and advances the professional practice of artists, designers, jewelers and metalsmiths. They also put out Metalsmith Magazine.

I first attended SNAG when I had just started taking metalsmithing classes in Denver a few years ago. Have you ever walked into a room and felt like "YEAH! This is my TRIBE!"? That's how I feel when I go to their conferences. They are full of creative, fun, and often crazy people with big ideas making amazing art. The conference this year is in Philadelphia and I am sad I can't go. So I thought I'd re-live my trip through some pictures from last year.
I invited my Dad, who is always up for a trip and such a fun travel companion. We were both missing my mom so I figured we needed a little early Spring. It was already so beautiful in Savannah while it was still snowy in Boulder. We had such a fun time and were both so glad we went.


If you go to Savannah make time for a tour of the Mercer Williams House, the SCAD store, Back in the Day Bakery and the Gryphon Tea Room, where we had a couple of meals and exquisite tea and cakes. I may take the whole family next time, but for sure I'll be attending SNAG again soon.
