Join Minnesota jewelry artist Andrea Turini on June 27th from 10:30am-12pm as she brings audiences inside the living traditions of Czech glass and beadmaking. Her presentation, Heirloom Fire: Czech Glasswork, draws on firsthand experiences in Jablonec nad Nisou, a region long recognized as a world center of bead and button production.
Then, audience members have the option to attend the Czech Glass Jewelry Design Workshop from 1-2pm where they can select from Andrea’s curated collection of authentic Czech glass beads to create their designs. Andrea demonstrates design concepts and assists with selection, then completes the technical finishing (wrapping, crimping and assembly) during class.
