About the Event

Enjoy hands-on beading activities facilitated by Navajo artist Brighid Pulskamp. Celebrate Native American traditions through interactive education, visual storytelling, and hands-on artistry. Connect with Native American heritage by viewing authentic, beautifully crafted pieces and discover the rich, diverse history of beadwork and the cultural significance while creating your own beadwork to take home.
