Gathering of Artists: Melissa Stenstrom, Jewelry

The Ames Community Arts Council’s July Gathering of Artists will be held via Zoom on Tuesday, July 13 at 6 p.m. The event will feature Melissa Stenstrom, owner of Melissa Stenstrom Fine Jewelry, specializing in handcrafted fine jewelry, one of a kind designs, limited editions, and custom designs. This event is free and open to everyone.

The evening will include a virtual tour of the shop, and a short presentation about Melissa’s work. Artists and art enthusiasts of all types are invited to learn about a local art offering and enjoy each other’s virtual company. Join us in this online format until we are once again able to gather together in person.

Over the past decade, our selection has evolved to become a well-edited assortment of contemporary and custom jewelry for all occasions.
