Show off and win!

Update- 7/8/12- Congratulations to Amanda Holm, winner of our Facebook drawing.  More opportunities to win are coming!



We want to see your best beadwork.  Post a picture of your best work onto our Facebook page by July 8, 2012.  (One per person, please.)  Everyone who posts their work will be entered to win a pair of tickets to the 20th Anniversary Gala Event & Dinner for the Great Lakes Beadworkers Guild ($40 value).

Members of two local guilds - the Great Lakes Beadworkers Guild, and Glass Act, the Southeastern Michigan Glass Beadmakers Guild – have teamed up (one from each Guild) to create amazing pieces of jewelry, wearable art, or other decorative art. 

The chosen theme for the Synergy Collaboration is “Yeah… Detroit. So Bead It!”  The artists were asked to create a piece of art that symbolizes Detroit to them personally.  Members from both of these guilds are some of the most talented artists in the area, so it should be a wonderful show.

The finished pieces will be on display at the City Gallery in the William M. Costick Activities Center in Farmington Hills, which is where the Gala Event will take place on October 6, 2012.

Tickets for the 20th Anniversary Gala event are now available for purchase at our store.

One final note:  Your privacy settings on facebook will dictate who gets to see your beaded artwork!
