Creativity is not the finding of a thing, but the making something out of it after it is found. |
Monthly MeetingsThe Bead Society meets the 1st Wednesday of the month at 7:00 - 9:00 pm Pacific Time from September through June. Monthly meetings feature illustrated lectures by an authority on beads or related subjects or member sharing! This is a great opportunity to meet with like-minded bead enthusiasts, collectors, and bead-makers, and share knowledge. This is your Bead Society and everyone has the opportunity to learn something from others. The Bead Society Business meeting starts at 6:30 pm. All are welcome.
In addition, the Bead Society has recently started having a second virtual meeting on the 3rd Saturday of each month at 1 pm Pacific Time. We call it the Beading Circle! We meet to discuss various aspects of beading, jewelry making, craftsmanship, selling and knowledge of beads in an informal setting. Come to share and discuss your work. Join us for beading and great conversation! All are welcome. Email admin@beadsocietyla.org for contact information. Check out our NEWS page for info on current and past meetings. The Bead Society Business meetings start at 6:30 pm before the monthly meetings. All are welcome. We are collecting stories from our members about their current beading projects. So we are asking if you have any Bead News for us, send it to admin@beadsocietyla.org. |
