What happened
Real, operating City of Irvine municipal community art center (18,000 sq ft) with a fully equipped jewelry/metals studio (casting centrifuge, burnout ovens, torches, hydraulic press); currently teaches metalsmithing, silversmithing, enameling, casting, lost-wax, bezel/stone setting, plus Jewelry Open Studio. Belongs in directory. SNAG "craft-center" listing is accurate; best schoolType is really a community/municipal art center (closest enum = community-college; note it is not a degree-granting college). No specific current metals/jewelry instructor names reliably findable — faculty left empty rather than invent.
