Our curators are currently preparing exhibits for you to enjoy and admire.

In the meantime, we would love to hear from you if you would like to showcase your bead related items here, whether you have an outstanding piece of beaded jewelry, a beaded treasure or some magnificent beads.

Share with the world the unique pieces you've made or found on a special buying trip!

If you have great bead jewelry designs, beaded objects and bead art to share, feel free to submit them to us.

The Huichol are a Mexican ethnic group with traditional "string art", where colored strings are pressed into a layer of bee's wax to create a design. This art form evolved into what many Mexico vacationers know as the beaded Huichol masks and animals, using colorful glass beads instead of threads.

Got any of those pieces? Share them!
