Museum offers class on bead jewelry making

| September 12, 2012

COSHOCTON – The Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum is offering a class on bead jewelry making from 1 to 3 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 23.

This class is geared to young people, 10 years and older, and will be taught by artist Jenn Bush, who earned an art degree from OSU.

Participants will begin in the special exhibit gallery to view the museum’s special exhibit of bead and clay works by Native Americans and contemporary artists. Bush will point out the diversity of styles and explain some of the various methods of beading. Then participants will make their own seed bead bracelet, choosing their own colors and design. (Seed beads are the small glass beads common in American Indian beadwork.) Students may choose from a number of styles suitable for boys and girls alike.

 Class fee is $12. Pre-paid reservations must be made by Thursday, Sept. 20. For information contact the Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum at 740-622-8710 or jhmuseum@jhmuseum.org. The Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum is located at 300 N. Whitewoman St.
