The Funding University | Where Business Learns About Funding
Have you noticed that we're just now at the beginning of March and we are already seeing a flurry of mergers being announced across the country? The pattern is evident on a national, regional, and local level. The reason we're seeing the increase in M&A activity is because in 2023 money stayed on the sidelines as financial executives waited to see how the Fed would act on interest rates. Most economists have been split between an impending recession or the US economy experiencing a soft landing, but the demands of the market are pushing companies to consolidate to maintain growth and competitive advantage. Companies have waited as long as they can, but in reality, it's the demands of the customers that are driving this activity because the consumer is always looking for better options. That's why I have asked Craig Stacy to join us. Craig is, the Managing Director of Sunbelt Business Advisors, who specializes in the sale and acquisition of companies. Craig is one of the most knowledgeable M&A experts in North America and his take on the recent spate of consolidation announcements is fascinating. There is always more to the deal than meets the eye and Craig brings a very insightful perspective as to why companies merge and more importantly, how to make sure you've got the right partner to merge with. Craig has agreed to preview the next Fundings Strategies Webinar airing this Thursday, March 7th entitled 2024 the year of M&A.

Are you getting ready to set goals and plan for 2023? It's that time of year when we think about moving forward into a new year. Stop!! Don't plan yet. Listen to this show before you do any planning. Unless you've taken some time to reflect on this past year and remember all the achievements you had, big or small, as well as the missteps, you aren't ready. We overlook this step and it's unfortunate, because we move on, having forgotten all the victories we had that we should celebrate. We learn so much from looking back, including what needs to be different next year. 5 things to let go of or reflect on, so you can move into a great new year are:1. Preconceived ideas2. Time and energy wasters3. Clutter (physical space, digital space and activities)4. Current schedule and routine 5.

The annual jewelry show is much more than just shopping—with workshops, educational opportunities, and showcases of every type of jewelry imaginable, there is something for every jewelry lover. NYC Jewelry Week co-founder Bella Neyman joined the Jewelry Journey Podcast to talk about what she and her partner JB Jones have in store for 2022; why they want the week to feel like opening up a jewelry box; and how you can support NYC Jewelry Week's programs. Read the episode transcript here. Sharon: Hello, everyone. Welcome to the Jewelry Journey Podcast. Here at the Jewelry Journey, we're about all things jewelry. With that in mind, I wanted to let you know about an upcoming jewelry conference, which is “Beyond Boundaries: Jewelry of the Americas.” It's sponsored by the Association for the Study of Jewelry and Related Arts, or, as it's otherwise known, ASJRA. The conference takes place virtually on Saturday and Sunday May 21 and May 22, which is around the corner. For details on the program and the speakers, go to www.jewelryconference.com. Non-members are welcome. I have to say that I attended this conference in person for several years, and it's one of my favorite conferences. It's a real treat to be able to sit in your pajamas or in comfies in your living room and listen to some extraordinary speakers. So, check it out. Register at www.jewelryconference.com. See you there. This is the second part of a two-part episode. Today, my guest is Bella Neyman, a woman who wears many hats in the world of jewelry. The primary one is as a mover and shaker among jewelry professionals. Her other hats include jewelry curator, historian, author, educator and cofounder of New York City Jewelry Week, or NYCJW as it's known. If you haven't heard part one, go to TheJewelryJourney.com. Welcome back. As a curator, I know you curated a glass jewelry exhibit several years ago. Are you thinking about anything else right now? Is there anything on the horizon? Bella: At some point, I started working at a jewelry gallery—this was prior to Jewelry Week—and I had the opportunity there to curate many shows. That was essentially my role there. Since then, Jewelry Week takes up so much of my time. The lectures are great because I can do them in spurts, but I don't really have the time that curating an exhibition requires. I was part of the curatorial committee for “45 Stories in Jewelry.” Sharon: At MAD, the Museum of Art and Design. Bella: MAD, yeah. I was part of that, and that was incredible. It was an incredible experience and I loved it. I have been asked to curate some exhibitions, some gallery shows outside Jewelry Week. It's a bit hard because Jewelry Week takes about 10 months to put together, so it becomes too challenging to focus on. Sharon: Just to make sure everybody knows, it's November 18 or 14 to 20. Bella: November 14. Sharon: Mark your calendars. It's in November, and that's around the corner when you think of all the work that has to go into it. Are you partnering with anybody this year? I know you have in the past. Are you doing it yourself? How is that working? Bella: We are going into our fifth year, and JB Jones is my partner. She's the other half of New York City Jewelry Week, and we're really excited about this year. As I said, it's our fifth year, so it's a big deal for us. This is the time of year when we start thinking about what the program will look like. We're already having conversations with some of our previous sponsors and partners who come in on some of the different initiatives we work on throughout the year. I think what most people don't recognize or realize, I should say, is that New York City Jewelry Week, while we have this one week in November, we work year-round, not just on planning the week, but on supporting the industry in ways that are meaningful to us. We have two platforms. One is called Here We Are, which is our platform dedicated to equity and inclusivity in the jewelry industry. We have another platform called One for the Future, which focuses on mentorship for emerging creatives in the jewelry industry. We spend a lot of time focused on both of those platforms. Education is also incredibly important to us, so we partner with the 92nd Street Y, for example, on educating youth about opportunities in jewelry post-high school graduation. There are lot of things we work on even before we get to November. Now is when we are starting to have conversations with jewelers, with artists, with curators. This is really exciting for us because everything is fresh and everybody's buzzing with ideas. It's really great to see how important and meaningful Jewelry Week has become, especially to independent jewelers. So many of them plan for it throughout the year. Last year, so many jewelers approached us and said, “O.K., for 2022, this is what I'm doing.” It's great to start having these conversations with them now because, yes, it's around the corner, but at the same time, there are so many things that can still happen between now and then. So, it's really exciting for us. Sharon: I'm in awe and amazed that it's your fifth year. I can't believe you created this and kept it going. It's amazing. What made you and JB decide to start it? Bella: We didn't realize how much work it was going to be. I think if we knew back then what we know now, we might have reconsidered. In all seriousness, the reason we did it is, first, I know this sounds cliche, but we love jewelry. We really love and value the independent voices and creatives that make this industry what it is. It's not easy. Being a jeweler is not easy, so we wanted to create a platform that would celebrate jewelers, that would make it a little bit easier for them to reach a consumer. There's a lot of competition. There's a lot of jewelry out there, so we wanted to make sure we did something that would support them. There are other examples of jewelry weeks around the world. We're not the first ones, certainly. My exposure to jewelry weeks came from the European model, going to SCHMUCK, going to HOYA, going to Paris for Cours de Bijoux. I saw their festivals and the energy, and that to me was so wonderful. We wanted to do it in New York, but again, we wanted to do something that included all different types of jewelry, because we really believe in providing something for everyone. That's important. We all come to jewelry from different places. Jewelry's a powerful thing. We all adorn our bodies in different, meaningful ways, and we wanted to create something that was for everyone. Our motto is “Jewelry for All,” and we really believe that. That's why Jewelry Week, as we curated it, is very different from other jewelry weeks, because it's fine jewelry; it's costume jewelry; it's antique. It's jewelry from non-precious materials. If you open up a jewelry box, most of the time you have different things in there. You have things you've picked up on the street. You have things that were given to you by your partner, something passed down from your grandmother, some things you love, some things you don't, some things you want to recreate into something you're going to wear every day. That's what we wanted. We wanted it to be like a jewelry box. You open it up, and there's this explosion of different things and a sense of discovery. The last five years have been incredibly difficult, to be honest with you, because we're very grassroots. We fundraise. Every year, in the beginning of the year, we start fundraising for the year ahead. JB and I don't take a salary. I've talked about this before, but we don't take a salary. We have an incredible group of volunteers and consultants we work with. Most people volunteer their time. That has been one of the most beautiful things about this week, and we hope it's made a difference. I think it has, because, as I said, I have jewelers reaching out to me a year in advance saying, “Next year, I'm doing a solo show during Jewelry Week.” That has been really special for both JB and me. Sharon: That's exciting. I don't have all the experience you have in terms of going to different shows, but the ones I have gone to, the way New York City Jewelry Week is different is like you were saying. You cover equity and diversity and all these things. To me, everything else is a show. It's like, “How much can I sell? Here's my table of wares.” Bella: Yes, absolutely. We believe to reach a consumer, you have to do it through education first and foremost. For us, it's not about the hard sell. It has never been about how many trunk shows we can pad this one week with. It has always been about beautifully curated moments. It's been about intimate settings. It's been about exhibitions. It's been about access. It's been about giving people an up-close look into work that maybe they weren't familiar with. It's about opening the doors to a museum collection. It's about having lectures and talks and workshops, and it's really meant to be a discovery. Yes, it's in New York, but it's more than that. New York is home to so many different voices and different cultures, and that's what we want to celebrate. Everybody says to us, even if they're coming from another part of the world, “Oh my god, I want to do this in New York,” because New York has always been the pinnacle. It's this city. If you've made it in New York, then that's it; you can make it anywhere. As cliche as that sounds, it's really true. We do have a lot of New York-based designers who participate, but we also have artists coming from all over the world. We help them do pop-up spaces, and they do exhibitions and talks and panels. It's a great week for discovery. Sharon: Wow! It sounds like it. I'm thinking about how hard it must be trying to find even one space to put on a panel. How about sponsors? Do you find more sponsors now by saying, “This is real. It's not just a flash in the pan.” Do you find more are coming to you? Bella: Yes and no, absolutely. We still have to send a deck, but we do have a lot of returning sponsors, which has been wonderful. We really believe in building relationships, and we've been fortunate to have some great sponsors over the years who keep coming back: 1stDibs, eBay. They've been wonderful. It's also been great to find new partners and sponsors to work with every year. We welcome that, just like every year we want to work with new and different designers and creatives and retailers, but the last two years have been incredibly difficult because of the pandemic. Like other small business, we've obviously felt it. Budgets aren't what they were, marketing budgets and production budgets and event budgets. Events were cut and, essentially, we're an event. In some cases, it's been easier; in some cases, it's been very difficult. We're optimistic and we're still here, but the only way we can continue growing and continue existing is if we continue getting sponsorship dollars. So, if you're listening and you're interested in becoming a sponsor, please reach out to us. You can always reach out to us on Instagram, or you can email me. We'd be happy to have a conversation. Sharon: There's a lot of exposure for your sponsor, so it's definitely something to consider. You're doing it virtually and in person. Bella: Yes. Last year we did a hybrid model, and we're going to be doing it again. It's a wonderful way to reach a broader audience. It's also a wonderful way for us to include artists and designers who might not be able to participate otherwise. Some of my favorite moments of the last two years were from the virtual programing. We did this incredible program of jewelers from South Africa two years ago. They recorded a fashion jewelry show for us. Last year we also did a presentation with Wallace Chan. Wallace Chan released a new book last year. There were, I think, five different authors for that book, and they're all in different parts of the world. What a great way to have Wallace do an intro and be present and to have these authors be present. Again, we reach a much broader audience that way, too. Sharon: It's such an entrepreneurial endeavor, Jewelry Week. It's creating something out of nothing. Is this something that runs in your blood? Is it in your family? Bella: Not at all, absolutely not at all. I think JB and I were so excited and so passionate about this, and we thought, “Let's just do it.” But no, no entrepreneurs in my immediate family. Sharon: I realize it's a lot of work, but you must be so proud of what you've done going into your fifth year. That is amazing and awe-inspiring. Bella: Yes, I guess. I never think about it until it's over, until that Sunday in November when I look around and think, “Oh my god, that was magic. We did that.” Until I get to that point, it's a lot of hard work. Sharon: Watching your posts on Instagram, it seems like it's never over. You have a lot of after-marketing, too. Bella: Yeah, it's never over. Again, our goal is to support the industry year-round. It's never over because, for the jewelers who we partner with and are part of Jewelry Week, it doesn't end for them. Jewelry Week is just one week. They're making work, they're selling work, and we want to be there to keep shining a light on them. Our work is never done. Sharon: Let's say you go to SCHMUCK or to another gallery and you see a jeweler you've never seen before, do you say, “Hey, would you like to be part of Jewelry Week?” Has that happened? Bella: Absolutely, all the time. That's actually how year one happened, because nobody knew about us. Now we have people who apply and are participating. We also curate a large portion of it. We invite people, but people can also apply to participate. I think for me, that's also been one of the most challenging things with the pandemic. I haven't had the opportunity to travel to see someone's studio. I haven't had the chance to be inspired in the way I would be otherwise. But yes, all the time, we see work we love. JB is always searching and researching on social media, discovering new voices, new work. We try to make sure the program is different from year to year. If somebody showed last year, we probably wouldn't invite them back unless there was a real good reason to. So yes, we're always looking, always discovering, always inviting. Sharon: It's a great calling card in so many ways. I'm imagining how it was the first year. Potential sponsors were probably saying, “Yeah, come back to me when it's bigger." Bella: Yeah, absolutely. People always want to see you prove yourself, especially when it comes to giving their time and money. They always want to make sure you're serious about what you're doing. To be honest with you, we won part of the jewelry industry. Most people in the jewelry industry didn't know us unless they were in the contemporary jewelry world, and then they already had a sense of who we were. Otherwise, it was like, “Who are these two women? What is this they're trying to do? What's a jewelry week? Why do we need it?” There are some partners who—for example, Bergdorf Goodman has always been this bastion of cool, chic, New York glamor. They've been with us from the beginning as a partner. There are some individuals who believed in us and have been with us for five years. Other people were like, “Yeah, let me see how it goes and come back to me,” and that's fine too. We get it. We understand. Sharon: Can somebody be a real member of the jewelry industry without being in New York or London or Paris? We're in Los Angeles. Not that there aren't great jewelers out here, it's just not New York. What do you think? Bella: I think you can find success no matter where you are, especially in this day and age, with everything being done virtually, with business being conducted over Instagram. I know designers living in New York who don't produce their jewelry in New York; they produce it in L.A. I think you absolutely can if you're passionate about what you're doing, if you have a vision, if you have a business you build right. Everything takes time, but I think if you love it, if you believe in what you are doing and if it drives you, then you can be successful no matter where you are. Sharon: You certainly have been successful. Have we covered everything? You have such a wide variety. Is there something else you want to mention? Bella: I would say that if you're interested in what we're doing, you should follow us on Instagram. It's @NYCJewelryWeek. That's also our website. Over the last five years, we've grown quite a bit. We have a wonderful blog—it's really interesting and informative—called Future Heirloom. Even when there isn't a program up on our website, there's always great content. I encourage everyone to check out our Instagram and to go to our website. If you're interested to know what classes I'm teaching, you can follow me on Instagram. It's just my name, @BellaNeyman. I'll always share what I'm up to. And just reach out. We're not a large corporation. We are two individuals who love what we do, so we hope people feel comfortable being in touch, and I should say most people do. They tell us what they love, what they hate, if they need help, even if they've never meet us. Most people feel comfortable chatting with us, so stay in touch. Sharon: We'll have links to your social media on the website when we post the podcast. I do have to say that I've discovered a lot of your courses and other things you do because I follow you. I'll say, “Oh, she's teaching that,” or “She's doing that.” That's great. Bella: Thank you. Sharon: Thank you so much for being with us today. Bella: My pleasure. Sharon: It's been great. Thank you. Thank you again for listening. Please leave us a rating and review so we can help others start their own jewelry journey.

The annual jewelry show is much more than just shopping—with workshops, educational opportunities, and showcases of every type of jewelry imaginable, there is something for every jewelry lover. NYC Jewelry Week co-founder Bella Neyman joined the Jewelry Journey Podcast to talk about what she and her partner JB Jones have in store for 2022; why they want the week to feel like opening up a jewelry box; and how you can support NYC Jewelry Week's programs. Read the episode transcript here. Sharon: Hello, everyone. Welcome to the Jewelry Journey Podcast. Here at the Jewelry Journey, we're about all things jewelry. With that in mind, I wanted to let you know about an upcoming jewelry conference, which is “Beyond Boundaries: Jewelry of the Americas.” It's sponsored by the Association for the Study of Jewelry and Related Arts, or, as it's otherwise known, ASJRA. The conference takes place virtually on Saturday and Sunday May 21 and May 22, which is around the corner. For details on the program and the speakers, go to www.jewelryconference.com. Non-members are welcome. I have to say that I attended this conference in person for several years, and it's one of my favorite conferences. It's a real treat to be able to sit in your pajamas or in comfies in your living room and listen to some extraordinary speakers. So, check it out. Register at www.jewelryconference.com. See you there. This is a two-part Jewelry Journey Podcast. Please make sure you subscribe so you can hear part two as soon as it comes out later this week. Today, my guest is Bella Neyman, a woman who wears many hats in the world of jewelry. The primary one is as a mover and shaker among jewelry professionals. Her other hats include jewelry curator, historian, author, educator and cofounder of New York City Jewelry Week, or NYCJW as it's known. Bella joined the Jewelry Journey Podcast several years ago talking about NYCJW when it was in its infancy. Today, we'll hear more about her own jewelry journey, what's in store for NYCJW this year, and more about her background. Bella, welcome to the program. Bella: Thank you so much, Sharon. Thank you for having me back again. It's exciting to be here. Thank you. Sharon: You're involved in so many things, it was so difficult to write an intro. Bella: When I hear that, it makes me think, “Wow, is she talking about me?” I don't know. I do the things I love. Sometimes I forget I do so many things. Sharon: Did you set out to do that? Did you know that when you became a jewelry professional? I'm sort of backing into this, but did you know that you were going to be involved in so many things when you became a jewelry professional? Or did you have one specific thing in mind? Bella: I had no idea. To be honest with you, I didn't really know that I would end up in jewelry. I went to Cooper Hewitt/Parsons for their Decorative Arts and Design master's program. I never took the jewelry course. I was interested in design and decorative arts. Getting ready to have this conversation with you, what I realized is that I didn't find jewelry; jewelry found me. I'm glad it did, obviously, because I love what I'm doing, but I did not think jewelry was going to be my focus at all, actually. Sharon: Were you a designer? Were you artistic as a kid? Bella: No, not at all, and I'm still not. I can sew a button. I can draw a straight line, but I'm completely not artistic. I've always loved art. I grew up around it. I was actually born in Russia—geographically, I should say I was born in Ukraine, but I'm Russian. I moved here when I was seven years old. I moved to America; I moved to New York. My parents were always interested in the arts. My mother was a librarian at an art museum in Odessa, which is the city where I was born. I am an only kid, so my parents always took me with them to wherever they were going. My father is a collector, so I always grew up around it. When we came to this country, because my parents didn't have anyone to leave me with, I always went with them everywhere. That's how I'm raising my daughter now. She goes with me everywhere, and we try to expose her to so many different things. So, I was always interested in the arts, but I never thought I would have a career in the arts. My parents, while they were always really encouraging, I don't think they thought I was going to end up in the arts either. Sharon: Did they support you if you wanted, or were they more like “Be an engineer”? Bella: Basically, yes. They were like, “You should do the thing that's going to make you money,” because we came to this country and didn't have much. I went to a public school. The college I went to is a city college. So, they really wanted me to do something that was going to make me a good living, but they also believed I should follow my heart and do what is going to make me happy. Even when I went to college, I didn't know what I was going to do. I was thinking, “Well, maybe psychology.” That was a popular thing at the time, but I took an art history course, and I was hooked. My bachelor's was in arts administration. I knew that I wanted to remain in the arts, but I wanted to do something where I was able to approach the art world with a sense of practicality, with a sense of having some knowledge of business skills, marketing, finance, because I always knew I wasn't going to be an artist. As I said, I'm not creative. So, I wanted to approach it from a place where I could support myself and support others. Sharon: Arts administration, that sounds intriguing. That sounds like a great foundation for what you're talking about. Bella: Exactly, something practical. Then, of course, for my master's degree, I decided that I wanted to go into the decorative arts, not into the fine arts. Again, thinking about what I could do to contribute to this thing I'm going to be embarking on studying. I just felt like the fine arts were saturated. There aren't any work opportunities. I thought, “What am I going to contribute to this field that hasn't already been done? There are so many other voices. Why do I need to do this? Why should I pursue this?” I always loved the decorative arts and I thought, “You know what? This seems like more of a niche, and maybe I can do something that would be more worthwhile.” I was thinking about, “O.K., can I be a curator? Can I be a writer? Can I work in a gallery? Can I work in an auction house?” Always thinking practically about how I could make a living doing this thing I love, I ended up in this master's program, which I absolutely loved. I chose it because I can work with objects. The two years that I spent there—we were at the Cooper Hewitt—were an incredible experience, but I never took a jewelry class. As I said, jewelry found me, because when I finished my master's degree, I was incredibly fortunate to find a job right away. I started working in a decorative arts gallery called Primavera Gallery. They had just moved to Chelsea. This was 2007, so Chelsea was really developing. Audrey and Haim, who owned the gallery, had an incredible collection. At that point, it had been in business for about 30 years, and they have an incredible collection not just of furniture and glass and ceramics and metalwork spanning the 20th century, but they also had an incredible collection of jewelry. Again, 20th century was the focus. They had really important signed pieces by many prominent European makers and designers. They also had great Georgian jewelry and Victorian jewelry because Audrey was always so passionate about jewelry. It was something she really loved. So, that was the first time I got to handle jewelry and start to appreciate it and look at it as an art form. Sharon: That's a great way to start out. Is Primavera still in business? Bella: At this point, Audrey and Haim have retired. I think they're probably still open by appointment. They still have a collection, but they're no longer in Chelsea. Sharon: I've never been, but I've always heard they were a fabulous gallery. Bella: Yeah, it was a great place to work. They were one of the first to sell Art Deco. When they were starting out, a lot of the pieces were still coming out of the original homes, the families that purchased these pieces. They were collecting them in the 70s, when there was a huge revival of Art Deco. So, it was a great place to work. Sharon: Wow! I'm always envious of people who got into the Cooper Hewitt in that program. I wish they had something out here like that. Tell us, were you hooked on jewelry from there? Bella: Yes, absolutely, I became hooked on jewelry there. As I said, it was the first time I was able to handle it and start to appreciate it. I think Audrey's stories about the pieces in their collection sparked an interest in me. I was always thinking about what else I could be doing. It's funny, because when you're in school, you're so busy trying to keep up with the curriculum. Once you graduate, you almost feel at a loss, like, “I have all this free time on my hands.” I really wanted to start writing, and I came upon a piece in their collection that I absolutely fell in love with. It was a necklace by the jeweler Sah Oved, and I wanted to investigate who this woman was. Sharon: I have to interrupt you—who was the piece by? Bella: Sah Oved. Sharon: Oh, Sah Oved, wow! Bella: I had started keeping a blog because, as I said, this is like 2007, 2008. Blogs were quite popular. I started a blog so I could write and have something to present should I ever find myself ready to pitch an editor, because I really wanted to write. I found this piece by Sah Oved in Audrey's collection. I wanted to know more about it, and that was the first time I wanted to explore somebody's jewelry story. Who was this woman? Why was this piece made? Why is it so different from anything I had seen? That really is what started it for me. I wrote this article. It was my first publication in a magazine, and I was hooked. I was really, really hooked and, as I said, I think jewelry found me. Sharon: I'm curious because so much of Moshe's work, you can't tell the difference. How did you know this was Sah Oved versus Moshe? Bella: Yeah, Sah was the jeweler. Moshe, his contribution to jewelry has been the animal rings that come on the auction scene every once in a while. Sah was really the jeweler. He was this eccentric businessman. He was a great supporter of the arts, but he didn't make that much jewelry. She was his partner. She worked with him at the Cameo Corner, which was his shop. She did a lot of repairs for him; she did custom work, but she had been interested in jewelry prior to working for him. She had her own little studio in London. So, part of the challenge was to find out who this woman was, because not much had been written about her. Sharon: There's still not much about her. Bella: There still isn't. I'm hoping to change that, but yes, there still isn't. Sharon: I know you gave a talk last year to the Association for the Study of Jewelry and Related Arts, which was fabulous because nobody ever talks about them, really. Bella: No, they don't. Sharon: The last time I saw a piece by you, it was in an antiques magazine. You also teach. How did you start teaching? Tell us about that. Bella: The teaching is something that is pretty recent. That's been a product of the pandemic. What happened between leaving Primavera Gallery and finding my way to where I am today is that I also discovered contemporary studio jewelry, which is how you and I know each other through Art Jewelry Forum. I was always interested in finding work and artists whose work speaks to me and sharing their stories, whether it be through writing, through lecturing, through New York City Jewelry Week, which I know we'll get to later on. That's what I've always been interested in, sharing those stories. I teach at two institutions. I lecture at the 92nd Street Y and at Christie's. I love jewelry, so for me, it has been wonderful—especially during the pandemic, when everybody was doing everything virtually and we were glued to our computer screens—to not only my share my jewelry knowledge, but also to broaden my jewelry knowledge. I teach a wide variety of courses. For example, next week, I'm starting a class at the Y on costume jewelry. In the past, I've taught classes on women designers in the 20th century. I've done an overview of jewelry history in the 20th century. For me, it's always been about sharing my knowledge, but also broadening my own knowledge. There's so much information out there, and to be able to take that information, make it digestible for my students and to hopefully inspire them and pass on my love of jewelry to them has been really special, especially during the pandemic, when it's been hard to be out and do things that we love. Sharon: I'm really looking forward to this class on costume jewelry because nobody talks about costume except Bakelite maybe once in a while. Tell us about it. How did you decide to do that? Bella: Absolutely. I've taught this class covering 100 years of jewelry and this other class on women designers, and when I put my courses together, I want to make sure I present the full scope of jewelry, all different types of jewelry. As I mentioned, while I worked for Audrey and Haim and worked with these important signed pieces and fine jewelry, in my personal life, I'm much more interested in contemporary studio jewelry and jewelry made from non-precious materials. So, when I teach these classes, I make sure I include all different types of jewelry because, to be quite honest with you, I think jewelry, regardless of what it's made from, it all informs. It informs each other, whether it's fine or studio or costume. So, when I put these classes together, I always want to make sure I cover a broad span of different types of jewelry. When I was working on the women designers course, I realized that a lot of women designers started out in costume jewelry, much more so than in fine jewelry, which has traditionally been a very male-dominated industry. But in costume jewelry there were a lot of female designers, and that sparked my interest. I've also been interested in fashion jewelry and fashion designers like Coco Chanel or Elsa Schiaparelli, who used costume jewelry historically to build their own image or to embellish their own collections. I was interested in that relationship as well, and that's how that class came about. You're right; not much has been done on costume jewelry. There are some publications, of course, but I haven't seen any classes. It was of interest to me, so I assumed it would be of interest to others. Sharon: It's unusual, because you can find other courses on jewelry history which are great—it's refreshing, I guess is the word. Bella: Good. I hope everyone signs up. The class starts next Thursday, February 24 at the 92nd Street Y. It's a virtual class. It's a six-week course. It's a little bit longer than my usual courses because the other thing I've enjoyed is having guest speakers join me in my classes. With everything being virtual, that's something that's easy. So, I have some fun speakers lined up as well. I'm really excited for it. Sharon: I'm sure it's going to be great. Do you think you'll continue at the Y with jewelry classes? Bella: Yeah, I think so. This is now my third course for them, and it's great. I love it. I enjoy meeting all the different individuals who sign up for the courses. I feel like we end up becoming friends. They're always so eager to reach out, and the class is really wonderful. They're virtual, so we can reach more students. Then, of course, at Christie's, we've also been able to do classes. I do virtual classes at Christie's, but I have recently started doing an in-person course called Jewelry Jaunts. It's really nice to be among other jewelry lovers, to be out looking at jewelry, trying it on and picking it up, investigating. Sharon: That sounds great. What are you teaching virtually at Christie's? I didn't know you were teaching virtually for them. Bella: At Christie's, I teach two courses. One of them is starting in March, and that's on the history of studio jewelry. Then the second course I've taught there is on artist jewelers. All these classes inform each other, as jewelry does. I look at a lot of the classes I teach as a part one and a part two, so, if you're interested in studio jewelry, there's a little bit of an overlap. That's why I wanted to add this other class focusing on artist jewelers. The virtual studio course is going to run in March, and the class I'm teaching now, as I said, is in person. It's fun. We'll hopefully do that in the spring again. Sharon: Wow! You're busy. Bella: I'm busy, but at the same time, it's been such a challenging couple of years, so it's a nice way to distract yourself. Sharon: It sounds like they're things you might not have been able to do or focus on. From my perspective, you cover everything from antique to art jewelry, but you're saying you like contemporary jewelry. I call it art jewelry. That's what you like, but you teach everything it seems. Is that what you're saying? Bella: I love jewelry. When it comes to the things I collect or the things I covet, most of that is contemporary studio jewelry or art jewelry, absolutely, but I love all jewelry. Sharon: I like that word, covet.

Guest: Coco Criste Executive Director The mansion was built in 1908 as a residence for the widow and the daughter of Denver real estate tycoon Walter Cheesman. Claude K. Boettcher purchased the mansion in 1923. After Boettchers died, the house was inherited by the Boettcher Foundation and they offered the house to the State of Colorado as an Executive Residence. The building needed a great deal of work, and its fate remained uncertain for nine months in 1959 as three agencies of the State rejected the offer. On the last day of 1959, Governor Stephen McNichols accepted the building as a gift to the state. During COVID, the mansion has been used more than any other administration for state events and meetings. The press conferences have also been held at the residence. The preservation fund is actually what pays to keep the house maintained, 75% of the operating budget comes from grants and donations. On October 2nd, they will be hosting the Colorado Masquerade Ball to help raise money for the preservation fund. https://events.r20.constantcontact.com/register/eventReg?oeidk=a07eiarpo5r916b339b&oseq=&c=&ch= See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As a senior, he had a perfect season making 35-for-35 field goals. Drafted by the Detroit Lions in 1980 and had a tremendous rookie year. He played in all 16 games, made 35 of 36 extra point attempts and booted a league-best 27 field goals, a franchise record. He also won the NFC scoring title (116 points). He was named to the Pro Bowl where he made 5 field goals and became the only rookie to receive the MVP award until that time. In 1983, he made the longest field goal in Lions history (54 yards).

In 1992, he left as the franchise's All-time leading scorer, ranking seventeenth in NFL history and was the ninth Lion to have played in 12 seasons. Murray left the game as the 16th highest scorer in NFL history. Murray currently resides in Michigan with his wife Cynthia and daughter Nicole.
On this episode, we resume our conversation with Philippa Meek, a research fellow at Exeter University specializing in Mormon polygamy studies. What would it take to decriminalize or legalize polygamy? Is this the best option? Philippa makes the case that plural marriage will be the next social justice issue and it’s only a matter of time before it is legal and considered socially acceptable by presenting survey data and legal precedent in other sexual and family dynamic issues from the 20th and 21st centuries.

On this episode, we take a break from our historical timeline to bring you a special guest. Philippa Meek is a research fellow at Exeter University specializing in polygamous religious sects. Part one of our discussion walks us through the controversial and intense history of early Mormon polygamy in Nauvoo and Utah. Then we dive into the legal issues surrounding the Utah Mormons and how the federal government passed numerous acts to specifically target Mormon polygamy, as well as the Mormon response to this increased pressure. Tune in next week to hear about navigating the legal sphere of legalizing polygamy!

On this episode, we check in with Emma and her slipping grasp on power. She kicks out of the Nauvoo Mansion the Partridge sisters, the Lawrence sisters, and Jane Manning James to hopefully cut down on the rumors circulating the city. Orsimus F. Bostwick files a public complaint against Hyrum Sidekick-Abiff Smith and claims “half a bushel of meal” will get him any prostitute he wants in Nauvoo. An anonymous poem is published about Celestial Marriage. W. W. Phelps responds with “The Voice of Innocence from Nauvoo” and it’s read to the first meeting of the Relief Society of 1844. Emma chastises her counselors telling them to keep an eye on their daughters. Links: Come to the March for the Children!!!

On this episode, we tap into over a dozen news articles to get a finger on the pulse of 1844 America when it came to the Mormons. People across the nation loved to read headlines about the Mormons and papers with those headlines sold like hotcakes. Newspapers ramped up the headlines to sell more copies, which, in turn, made everybody even more frenzied about the deluded religious fanatics that were going to take over the country. A new scandal breaks and Jo deflects everybody’s attention by calling out John C. Calhoun on his complacency toward the plight of the Mormons.

On this episode, we begin with discussing the arrest and extradition to Missouri of Mormon horse-thief Daniel Avery. He suffers for 2 weeks in a Missouri jail and is let off on a writ of habeas corpus to return to Nauvoo and swear out an affidavit detailing what happened. The Anti-Mormon political party becomes more aggressive in its opposition to Mormon political power and the Nauvoo City Council responds with enacting an ordinance which would allow them to arrest any officer of the law attempting to arrest a Mormon and throw them in prison for life. The Anti-Mormon party reacts in outrage and drafts their own resolution to run any Mormons out of Carthage and Warsaw, as well as send a copy of the new Nauvoo ordinance to the Governors of Missouri and Illinois. We wrap the episode with briefly discussing last week’s episode and some listener mail.
