directions? Check out the map.
As part of our educational mission, we occasionally hold meetings where
the beads are! Watch the newsletter or the website for updates.
Inclement
weather:
If the weather is so bad that we decide to cancel a program,
we
will make every effort to notify you. There will be a notice
on
Channels 4, 6, and 12, there will be an
announcement on the website's home page, we'll post it on Facebook, and
there will be an e-mail blast. Check your e-mail or the
website
before leaving home or work. We will also try to call members
without e-mail. But let common sense prevail - if you do not
feel
safe driving because of snow or ice stay
home. We want you safe to bead another day!
Upcoming Meetings
Please note that June's meeting IS NOT on the 3rd
Monday of the Month.

Our own Tammy Rae Wolter is a borosilicate artist. What does
that
mean? Come to the February program to find out! She
will be
presenting and giving a talk describing the art glass that she creates.
She plans to "demonstrate" what she does using still photos of
how different glass items develop such as a marble, a pendant, and a
bead. She's also going to explain how things are layered and how
the different glass moves for imploded designs.
The table talk theme for February is jewelry created using art
glass.
We're always looking for different ways to show off these
beautiful pieces - show us what you did with yours and we'll show you
what we did with ours. Bonus points if you bring in pieces
using
Tammy Rae's beads!

Lisa Binkley is a quilt and
bead artist who will present a slide show and lecture entitled "Bead
without ceasing". According to her website, http://lisabinkley.typepad.com:
In this lecture and slide show I briefly describe my background in
quilt making prior to discovering beadwork. Then the main portion of
the lecture focuses on my passion for beads and the many ways I have
explored the use of beads on quilts to add color, texture, dimension,
and life to each piece. I also provide a brief history of beads and
their evolution as a medium for creative expression from tens of
thousands of years ago through today. This lecture includes the display
of some of my quilts and smaller framed work and is about 1 hour in
length, including time for Q&A with the audience.
Check out her website - there are many, many pictures that will have
you drooling!
