Skills-Based Programs
For Beadwork and Jewelry-Making Learning
Click to subscribe to beadschool
Our LEARN TO BEAD program uses a structured, skills-based, rather
than an ad hoc project-based, approach to our curriculum. Attention
is paid to what skills should be taught, and in what order, to
create the most successful approach to learning beadwork and
jewelry design. We offer 40-80 classes on a wide range of subjects
each month.
