Native American Beadwork Workshop

Time TBA

Join Native American artist Alan Groves (Northern Ute and Hopi) for a hands-on beadwork workshop exploring the history and artistry of Indigenous beadwork. Participants will learn how Native artists once used natural materials such as porcupine quills before European contact and how trade introduced glass beads that shaped modern Ute beadwork traditions. Through demonstration and discussion, Groves shares cultural knowledge and highlights the importance of learning from diverse perspectives through Native art and storytelling.
