"Shalev-Gerz invited five historians and five people who had recently fled their home countries to speak about ... objects. The cultural and emotional value of jewelry sustains as an intimate medium to store memories of the present, but also to record possible histories of the past."

NOTE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, REBEKAH FRANK
Six-Year Anniversary!
It's hard to believe that six years ago, I began working at AJF while still an MFA student at Cranbrook Academy of Art. Thanks to AJF members Davira Taragin and Susan Drew Watkins for reminding me of the anniversary--time flies.
This is me (second from the bottom), hard at work, with a group of artists, collectors, gallerists, and curators during a recent AJF Trip to San Francisco.
It's an honor and a privilege to work with an amazing board and an engaged membership in support of art jewelry.
Thank you for being part of the AJF community.
OPEN CALL: Submit your writing proposals to be considered for publication on AJF's website.
DEADLINE: March 1, 2018
