Beaded Earrings Workshop

Design and make a pair of beaded earrings with current HCCC resident artist Lakea Shepard! Lakea is a mixed-media designer, sculptor and milliner who creates “head-sculptures” using traditional, African textile techniques including beading, weaving, and basketry. In this workshop, experiment with mixing and matching ceramic, plastic, wood, and semi-precious beads to create your earring designs. Learn Lakea’s technique of sewing beads onto fabric to construct textured shapes. Wear your lightweight and fun earrings to any occasion! Space is limited to a maximum of 15 participants.
