About the class
Learn to create hand-rolled beads made from vintage Japanese recycled or remnant fabric. This is a two day workshop, 2 hours each workshop. During the first class, students will choose from distinctive Japanese fabrics and learn the process of cutting, preparing the fabric and the rolling techniques to create handmade beads. For the second workshop the participants will return with the fabric beads they have made at home and will learn how to design and assemble a personal jewelry piece incorporating their fabric beads with a variety of provided glass and stone beads.
Materials fee includes fabric, adhesive, beads, wire and findings.
Please share any special considerations (medical, physical, learning) that will help your instructor make your class accessible and accommodating for you. You can share these considerations when register or by emailing Sean at sean@sonomacommunitycenter.org.
When you register for a class, you’ll be offered three price tiers. The middle tier comes closest to what our registration fees used to be, and covers about 50% of the full cost of your participation in the class – with the other 50% covered by community donations. The first tier creates accessibility for people with limited income, while the third tier covers the full cost of participation – so that we can use community donations to support other people’s registration costs. When you choose to register at the third tier, you directly help support the Center’s efforts to remove financial barriers for others.
The Sonoma Community Center (the Center) strives to create an inclusive, safe community where everyone is treated with dignity and respect.

In order to ensure a positive, safe, and welcoming experience for everyone, all program participants are asked to abide by the following policies, community agreements, and restorative safety protocol.
