"I am so grateful for the existence of The Jewelry Symposium, and for their acumen and far-thinking regarding the creation of scholarships to attend this prestigious event. There are never adequate words to describe how great the impact is for students new to jewelry studies, to be able to see, absorb and actually converse with the "greats" and the "greats-to-be" of the jewelry industry on a one-to-one basis. It's events like these that leave lasting impressions – and, in many cases, can significantly alter a person's perspective – in the way in which one can view jewelry. 
The greatness of the Jewelry Symposium lies in the participants' commitment to the sharing of ideas, technologies and other exciting developments in the jewelry community - there are very few events that allow students the ability to immerse themselves in their chosen profession without the distractions of daily life - to be able to concentrate all their energies in a supportive, artistic environment provided by The Jewelry Symposium can be truly life-changing."
