Beads have been used by humans for over 100,000 years as a means to communicate ideas, values, and beliefs. They have been associated with linking people together, providing hope, and as a means of meditation or relaxation. Create two symbolic bracelets by choosing from a mixture of holiday themed and colorful beads that may help create calm, gain courage, or bring happiness when you touch each bead. Keep one for yourself and give one as a gift. This program is free and open to the public, but requires prior registration. Registration will be limited to those who are 16 years of age or older. This project is supported by the Arizona State Library, Archives and Public Records, a division of the Secretary of State, with federal funds from the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
