Beaded Tapestry Station | Fall Patterns | October 25, 2026

Stop by our beaded tapestry session at El Mercado and join us for an afternoon of hands-on making in a BIPOC adult affinity space. I’ll be guiding you through the meditative practice of creating your own fall-themed beaded tapestry—where every bead becomes a moment of presence and every pattern is an expression of you.

Beaded tapestry is all rhythm, repetition, and flow. The gentle click of beads, the way colors come together to create something beautiful, the freedom to design whatever speaks to you. Drop in for inspo or stay for the full afternoon—whether you’re creating autumn florals, geometric patterns, or something straight from your imagination, this is about slowing down and letting your hands guide the way.

All skill levels welcome. Design and create your own beaded tapestry to take home—whether this is your first time working with beads or you’ve been at it for years, this is about connecting with your creative practice while you shop, eat, and gather with your community.

✦ All skill levels welcome · Drop in anytime · Beads & supplies provided
✦ BIPOC centered · Food & vendors on-site
