Albuquerque’s creative spirit was on full display as locals flocked to The Whole Bead Show, hunting for everything from rare turquoise to delicate seed beads. This isn’t just about jewelry—beading is a living tradition here, deeply rooted in Native American culture and open to everyone. The New Mexico Bead Society, a nonprofit, is making it easy for anyone curious to jump in, offering classes and a welcoming community. It’s amazing to see how a centuries-old craft continues to inspire and connect people of all backgrounds right here in our city.
