In this romantic musical comedy, when guys fall in love, they’ll do more than roll the dice to win their dolls!

When Tory Junior Minister Richard Willey tries to spend the evening at the Westminster Hotel with Jane, a secretary for the Opposition, things don’t go quite as planned - starting with the discovery of a body trapped in the hotel room’s sash window. With the help of Richard’s wellintentioned private secretary and the arrival of several unwanted visitors, the situation goes from bad to worse to hysterical in record time.

5135. Steam Casting in the 21st Century

Low tech in execution but sophisticated in theory steam casting is a fun way to do lost wax casting without much equipment. There are several methods to cast metal. Gravity works if metal mass is heavy enough. Centrifugal casting is used for small amounts of metal. Vacuum casting pulls the molten metal into the mold. Pressure casting includes both compressed air or steam to push the metal into the mold. The flask is both mold, melting crucible and steam generator. To make this work the sprue cannot be larger than 14g or else molten metal can drip into the mold. Once the metal is melted in the button/crucible area of the flask a jar cap with wetted paper attached to a wooden handle is pressed against the hot mold and melted metal. The heat of the mold and melted metal produces steam which forces the metal into the mold. That’s it! Students will carve hard wax for rings and make hot glue gun rings also. Instructor Christopher Darway Location: Metals Studio fee $240 (members $216) Saturday and Sunday, 6/27 & 6/28, 10:00 am - 5:00 pm Christopher Darway has been working in metals for over 40 years as a designer, teacher and artisan. Born in Brooklyn, New York and raised in New Jersey he received a BFA in craft design from the Philadelphia College of Art. He has taught at the University of the Arts, University of Delaware, and Montclair State University, NJ.

The focus will be on candid street photography, landscapes and many dynamic New York Locations. Some of the highlights include the Brooklyn Bridge, Washington Square Park, the Vessel ( think M.C. Escher) and the East Village. There will also be plenty of time to explore the museums and document the New York City Pride March on Sunday.

There’s an attraction I have to a person’s imperfections that stand out for me when I find a subject.” Interested? Contact Jessica Tefft for more information and to register for the trip.
