Jared Porter Trunk Show


Hometown designer Jared Porter will be setting up his new designs at a trunk show
hosted by Amerigem!

Join us at the Amerigem showroom on
Saturday, November 27, Noon - 5:00pm
to see Jared's BRAND NEW designs for 2011 and to meet the artist himself!



Jared first started designing and making jewelry in 2002. He took a metalsmithing class at the Des Moines Art Center then a similar class at Waukee High School, where he was a sophomore at the time. His first award was at the high school art show for a necklace he made his junior year. During his senior year, Jared received school credit for working at Iowa Jeweler Supply.


He graduated from Waukee in 2004 then went to Iowa State where he received his Integrated Studio Arts degree in 2008. Shortly after graduating, he was recognized for his outstanding work where he was awarded the “Emerging Iowa Artist Best of Show” at the Des Moines Art Festival.




Jared now resides in Boulder, Colorado where he works as a bench worker for Todd Reed. He creates and designs his own work in his spare time.
