Crafty art

Article Abstract:

Six jewelry and small-metal artists have been selected to work at the Pyrmont Jewellery Studios in Sydney, Australia's first public craft and design workshop. Pyrmont will provide training materials and studio space for these artists, so they can set up their own small businesses once the course is completed. The program is funded by a $500,000 grant from the Department of Education, Employment, Training and Youth Affairs.
