The Northern Virginia Bead Society
The Northern Virginia Bead Society (NVBS) a Non-Profit organization, was created in February of 1992. Lorraine Morton, who passed away in 2009, was one of the founding 13 members.
Our purpose is to encourage members of the community to appreciate and participate in the visual arts through beads. We endeavor to provide a network for education opportunities and the exchange of ideas about beads and techniques in beading. We sponsor a bead and jewelry Auction (May) and a full scale Bead and Jewelry show (Sept/Oct) every year! We bring artists from all over the nation to Virginia to speak at meetings and teach workshops.
