Mary Beaver, of Noc Bay, is the teacher for our Saturday beadworking classes. Mary's emphasis is on using many of the traditional beadworking techniques in modern jewelry designs.
LEARN THE ART OF BEADWORKING

From traditional bead weaving to modern bead stringing jewelry designs, learn to make your own creations. Class projects are planned that use the many beads and jewelry findings available in the store at Noc Bay Trading Company.

Getting you started is the whole purpose of our class design. For each technique, once you complete the class project, you will be able to expand your own beadwork patterns and designs through experience. Project materials and use of tools needed for each project is included in the cost of $20 for each half day class and $40 for full day classes.

Currently, all classes are scheduled on Saturdays. See the current calendar plans listed below. More details about each class can be viewed by clicking on the subject number below.
