About this Event
Join Navajo and Tewa artist Crystal Begay for a professional introduction to the heritage and artistry of Plains-style beadwork. This workshop explores the cultural significance of Native American designs, illustrating how specific color palettes and patterns serve as a visual record of tribal history and identity.
Take home a hand-beaded and sewn keepsake. Under Crystal’s expert guidance, participants will transition from cultural context to hands-on construction. Comprehensive written instructions will be provided to ensure all participants can finish their projects independently.
Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned crafter, you’ll leave with a beautiful handmade accessory and a deeper appreciation for Native American traditions.
