Program Description

Event Details

Drop in for open hours helping Maker in Residence Ela Diel create a community-based project in Native American Beadwork! 

Ela will guide you on how to contribute beads to a community canvas that will be displayed in the library in the future.  

Native American Beading culture crosses many tribes and has significant meaning in who we are in our tribes as well as what we believe in within ourselves. Join Ela Diel, a Cherokee native, as she shares with you pieces of her culture. Help keep some native traditions alive through beading art.
