That sounds really great, but I don't think I can meet the deadline. I hope you get lots of responses and beads though.

Are the beads you are looking for the same type of beads we normally submit? Big beads with bright colors and no metallics on the surface?

Great question. So, these beads are presented for the general public in a gallery setting, you are not bound to make them under the same guidelines as for the kiddos. For this exhibit, we're looking for beads or finished pieces (pendants, jewelry, etc) that have the "heart" in the theme, but that doesn't mean your beads need to be heart shaped. You can have the heart theme inspired in your designs; ie surface decorations, etc. Please email me at To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts. if you would like the consignment info pack emailed to you. You must have the consignment agreement signed for this exhibition as it is a paid exhibition (ie, YOU get paid when we sell your piece!). You do not have to donate! Just a reminder. submissions need to be received by Jan. 20th. To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts. Feel free to email me with any questions at all!

Bummer, I have to travel for work and can't meet the deadline. Do you think there will be another event like this soon? Not sure how this works but it sounds fun.

We'll have things planned throughout the year! We're just fleshing out the details, but we are planning to have ongoing exhibitions and other opportunities for artists to show work or participate in BOC fundraisers. I'll keep you posted!
