On view in a cabinet on the Upper Gallery, will be a dazzling display of beadwork by The Beadworkers Guild. ‘Copper & Turquoise’ is a body of work created by the Guild’s members, to showcase what can be created with a simple needle, thread and a variety of beads. On display will be a dazzling array of jewellery and 3D projects, with both simple and intricate pieces. Alongside pieces from their annual colour theme project will be winning pieces from the Guild’s Members’ Annual Challenge, which have only ever been displayed at trade shows before.
