About Cross-Cultural Beading Circle

Everyone is invited to share their skills, learn and/or work independently in a welcoming atmosphere. No experience necessary. Novice and experienced beaders of all cultures, ages and genders are welcome.

Some sessions are unstructured and provide an opportunity to work on our own projects, together. Other sessions feature a guest beader, who will share their history with beading and their techniques. When there is a guest, a kit of free materials (incl. beads, thread, cloth and leather) will be available for you at MAWA. If you are joining in via Zoom, you can pick it up in advance, or it can be delivered to you. Note that numbers for these sessions will be limited.

Please only register for either the May 2 session or May 16 session not both. It is the same workshop repeated.
