Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to elevate your accessory collection!

Napatsi Folger, Indigenous Writer and Artist in Residence, and Selina Boan, Indigenous Writer and Artist in Residence will lead us through this brick stitch beading workshop on how to create fringe earrings. 

 

Beading supplies and snacks will be provided.  All are welcome! Please be sure to register as there are limited spots available.


We recommend that you watch the following tutorials ahead of time, so you are familiar with how to start and work with brick stitch beading. You can also download the grid paper if you wish to use your own beading design: bit.ly/beadgrid
