Bead Camp – Registration Now Open

Our Bead Camp has grown into a wonderful weekend that is held 3x a year at the historic DeKoven Center on the shore of Lake Michigan.

Each winter, spring & fall we host one of the most fun filled weekends of the year and draw participants from the local area as well as from 7 states (so far!)

Bead Camp offers a few classes so you can learn new things, loads of time for working on projects you’ve started but never finished, or ones you’ve always wanted to do!  Our facility is filled with light and history – originally a college built in the 1860’s!  The antiques, art and craftsmanship throughout the building is inspiring!  All of your meals & lodging are provided.  While we often have fun field trips people can join in if they choose, you never have to leave our amazing space!  Meals, rooms, classes and our bead room are all located in the same building.  We laugh a lot.  We watch a movie while we bead on Saturday night.  We even take a shopping run to the bead store in our pajamas after hours.

Our Winter Bead Camp is January 20th – 22nd, 2017!
