Join us for a creative and meditative beading workshop for kids! Zangar of ZMakesBeads will be here to lead this expressive arts workshop that teaches participants the basics of beaded jewelry making and the difference between semi-precious stones and precious stones. The materials used are semi-precious stones and other natural jewelry materials. Semi-precious stones have been appreciated for generations.  Young participants will leave with their own handmade jewelry. No prior art or jewelry-making experience required, all materials and tools are provided. Registration is required. This bead program is for children 8+. 

Zangar Freeman is a first-generation Liberian‑American jewelry artist, educator, and veteran.
