About this Event
Beading Circle
Beading is medicine. A vessel for sacred wisdom, a living thread that connects us to the past, grounds us in the present and carries our stories forward through generations. Beading circles are a form of prayer, where every bead holds intention - a ceremonial practice honoring ancestral teachings.
