- MAWA, 611 Main Street
MAWA’s cross-cultural beading group meets to informally work on their own projects together. Everyone—of all backgrounds, ages and genders—is invited to share their skills, to learn and to work independently in a convivial atmosphere. No experience necessary. Novices and experienced beaders alike are welcome. Some free materials are provided (beads, thread, cloth and leather) or you can bring your own.
This meeting will also have special guest Maasai beader Zipporah Machuki.
No need to register, just come! Free!

She learned beading in school in Kenya, which is taught to all children as part of fine arts classes in grade 1 through 12.
