Holly Bean

Holly Bean will be joining us via Zoom from Prince William, Virginia. Holly will be sharing with us her design process - how does she come up with designs? what inspires her? how does she transfer ideas into actual beading product?  Come to the meeting or Zoom in to get a glimpse into Holly's processes.  

She will also be teaching classes via zoom on April 6th and 7th. Class information here:


Sadly, we had to cancel the Bead and Creative Arts Festival this year due to lack of sufficient vendors to make this fundraiser profitable. We are still showcasing the vendors who did sign up on the Festival Facebook page,  https://www.facebook.com/PBSpresentsBeadandCreativeArtsFestival, and encourage you to support these small businesses directly.  We are brainstorming ways to make the festival work in the future.
