Spirit of the Wind for Kids II: A Native American Bead Making Workshop
Spirit of the Wind's second kids'event,
Spirit of the Wind for Kids II: A Native American Bead-Making Workshop is happening on Saturday, July 18, 2026, from 10 AM to 2 PM at the Weed Community Center in Weed, CA.
We are hosting 15 kids and their parents (a maximum of 50 people) at an Arts & Crafts station with beads and necklace materials, where they can create their own bead ornaments and learn about the Native American Beadwork Tradition.
Beadwork designs often carry symbolic meaning, reflecting cultural beliefs, tribal identity, and spiritual connections to the natural world.
We're also having a drum circle with Native American storytelling and songs, special guests to be announced, face painting for the kids, and more!
This event will be broadcast live on our social media.
Our focus is to bring Youth and Culture together through our Arts & Crafts activities and to keep Native American Traditions alive!
