Beaded Bliss 7/14-18 Week 4
Youth Class | Registration opens 3/27/2025 8:00 PM EDT
Journey into the colorful magical world of beads to create colorful one-of-a-kind jewelry. Young artists will design their own unique bracelets, necklaces, anklets and more. A variety of glass, resin and metal beads, glass cabochons, beading wire and findings will be provided. Project focus will be on how we adorn our bodies to express our unique personalities and highlight the use of colors and patterns to create rhythm and emotion. Class requires a little patience with lots of imagination.
- Reduced tuition on youth classes requires a family membership. For a full-day program, a morning class may be combined with an afternoon class. Supervised "bridge" care is available for these students, between 12-1PM, for an additional $40 per week.
