You are invited to an illustrated talk on the ORIGIN of BEADS by Severa Rech Cassarino. A light-hearted look at the story of beads from when it sprang up in the midst of the survivalist lifestyle of Early Hominids, through its various roles in ancient cultures - Sumerian, Phoenician, Etruscan, Egypt and Ancient Troy. A look at the use of various materials, from the earliest, to the traditional, the unusual and the enduring. The talk will be followed by a Practical Workshop where you will create your own personalized LOVE version of the TRANCE DANCER.
Please note that the event costs R200 per person. Bookings at www.webtickets.co.za/event. See the image below for full details.
