About this Event

Beadwork 101: Bead Your Own Pronoun Pin Workshop
Thursday, June 11th 6-9PM

Come hang out for a summer evening of beading, snacks, and community ✨
We’ll be creating beaded pronoun pins!

I’ll guide you through the process step by step, so no experience is needed. You’ll leave with a finished piece (handmade by you!) and all the skills to keep beading on your own. Whether you’re a first-time beader or looking to deepen your craft, this is a relaxed, supportive space to learn, create, and connect.
KN95+ masks are required. Folks are permitted to remove their masks for eating or drinking. If you’re feeling unwell, please stay home — we can discuss a ticket transfer.
