Meet the Maker!

Past event
Jul 30, 2022, 11 AM to 1 PM

Join us Saturday, July 30 for a "Meet the Maker" event, where you can shop Melissa's sculptural contemporary jewelry creations while learning about her process.

While at Atelier 101, you can also browse the works of and meet ceramic artists Stephanie Grace & Alicja Costanza.

Make it a full "Sip & Shop" experience by visiting our friends next door at The Mad River Taste Place where they will be hosting a tasting of Eden Cider, Vermont ice ciders, aperitif ciders and harvest ciders crafted from locally sourced, sustainably grown apples. You can also partake in their weekly Saturday wine tastings while you're here!

ABOUT MELLE FINELLI JEWELRY

Melissa Finelli is a jeweler and metalsmith who splits her time between Vermont and Boston. Melissa studied metalsmithing at the North Bennet Street School and sculpture at the School of Museum of Fine Arts. Melissa's award-winning works are intimate sculptures to adorn the body and encompass an appreciation for organic forms and playful design. Her jewelry is forged by hand in silver or 18k gold by heating the metal, and then hammered to sculpt the piece into life. By creating jewelry in this process it is Melissa's intention that no two pieces are exactly alike. Her jewelry showcases smooth forms, playful spinning circles, or sprouting appendages in unfussy designs.
