Because we think that love, peace and
beads go well together, the new museum will be home to all three.
Soon you can visit your dedicated beads
and your sponsored panels, choose more beads for loved ones and
shop for meaningful gifts. Then marvel about beaded artifacts from
around the world and everything related to the topics of love and peace.
The museum will host Gala Receptions,
Birthday Parties, Classes, Workshops and Seminars. Artists can exhibit
their relevant work and Authors will be invited to discuss their books
about peaceful living.
The new museum will be a hub for
education, cultural diversity and a gentler lifestyle.
As we are preparing for this wonderful
place to open in Palm Beach County, Florida, we'll keep you up-to-date on the progress
via our Facebook
Page. Like it today and get the latest scoop:

Snake with wolf pattern as fertility symbol made by
the Huichol, Mexico
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.
