Handshake is a mentoring project involving emerging jewellers from New Zealand matched with their chosen idols/mentors from across the globe. The project began in February 2011, and is ongoing until 2013, with exhibitions in NZ and beyond along the way. This site has the blogs from all the mentees, background information and exhibition dates . Please check back regularly to see what the mentees are up to and how their relationships are going.
