The Beads of Courage Bead Challenge is returning to Brazee Street Studios September 21 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Bead artists will come together for a marathon bead-making session to support the Children’s Hospital. The beads created during the event will be given to the hospital’s patients to recognized the milestones in their treatment journey and to honor and acknowledge their courage.

The event for this great cause is free and open to the public. Activities include bead making, bead sponsorship where visitors can become a Bead Sponsor for a child in the Beads of Courage Program, strength bracelets for attendees to make to honor their own strength and courage and a Fimo Bead Making Table to create clay beads.

The event will be held at Brazee Street Studios School of Glass at 4426 Brazee Street in Cincinnati. Over at Cincy Chic, we recently featured Robin Ewers, who owns Dogwood Art Studio and is also at Brazee Street Studios.
