Whether you're a member of the International Society of Glass Beadmakers or not, the work that we do affects your beadmaking. ISGB was the first lampworking forum; all others grew from it. Our educational programs, including advertising in premier art magazines, influence and educate bead buyers. ISGB fosters the unique sharing community that exists in beadmaking--so different from many other artistic disciplines.
For the first time, ISGB is reaching out to the public to raise funds to continue its work for lampworkers. We are currently accepting donations of beads, finished work, and functional items (such as bead pens and wine stoppers) to be auctioned on eBay between April 5 and April 26.
Information about donating can be found
here.
We're accepting your help through March 29, 2010.
Thanks so much,
Nolly Gelsinger
