August Program 2017

Nancy Cain Trunk Show

Nancy Cain our August 12th & 13th guest instructor will present a Trunk Show and Discussion of Her Beading Career at our August 11th Meeting. Members will be able to meet Nancy and purchase her beautiful and unique kit designs.  Nancy is an internationally known beadwork designer. 

Nancy says "... Teaching is a journey for me as well. Each class is different even with the same project. My focus is heavily about the process a piece takes. In art, the artist explores the process and the product or finished piece is the result of that exploration. For me, the process, whether mentally or physically is thrilling, frustrating, challenging and where the real bead joy is. It is the journey. When I am teaching a class, I get to view the process again through fresh eyes. We can reconstruct it as is or deconstruct it by looking at the process, delving below its surface and learn new lessons from it. The direction and depth of a class can be varied: the more inquisitive the class, the more detailed the ideas of process can get. It is a spontaneous journey we can take together. "

Nancy says, "I enjoy sprinkling a few beads here and there whenever I travel, imagining them as tiny little magical gifts to be shared." 

 Members are asked to bring their own projects to work on during the meeting.
