AANHPI affinity workshop: Friendship Bracelets with Eling Chang

Come hang out and learn to make your own personalized friendship bracelets! Happy/cozy/snarky/sweary — whatever message you want to wear or share, we’ll help you pick out the beads to make your imagined bracelet a reality, then teach you the construction basics (and a few fancy tricks if we have time 😉), and walk you through assembly and finishing!

Class fee includes all materials needed for you to make two personalized, single strand beaded friendship bracelets — so you can keep one and gift another to your bestie (or keep them both for yourself 😉), but additional materials will be available for purchase if you want to make more bracelets in class (or later at home).

Please note: Your friendship bracelet will be entirely personalized by you, but hate speech or racism in any form will not be tolerated — in your bracelet or at Lucky Knot Arts events.

Pay what you can! Our suggested sliding scale for registration is $20-40 per participant. Your contribution helps support more Lucky Knot Arts programming! Each ticket includes (2) friendship bracelets created with Eling as well as light snacks and drinks we’ll provide from a local Asian-owned vendor.
