It is with heavy hearts that we say goodbye to Phil London (pictured below with his wife Vicki at Wildacres)  He left this earth on April 26, 2013.  He was the founder of
the Florida Society of Goldsmiths and began the tradition of bringing jewelers to a workshop at Wildacres Retreat in 1987.  Thank you Phil for your dedication and many years of effort in establishing and growing our organization!  You will be missed by all.

The West Coast Chapter of the Florida Society of Goldsmiths  
Who We  Are:  WCFSG is a 501 (C) 3 non-profit organization created by metalsmiths to aid and  support other metalsmiths through workshops, meetings, exhibitions and  publicity.  We are silver and goldsmiths and membership includes anyone interested in the metal arts. WCFSG was formed in 1984 to provide metalsmiths with opportunities for education and as a conduit for sharing knowledge, supply, technical and research sources. WCFSG's directive is to broaden public awareness and appreciation of handcrafted jewelry and metalwork.
