This is year number two for Beadex, a beading exhibit and get together held in South Africa. It runs May 16, 17, and 18 at the Sandton Convention Centre.

Along with lots of beads to buy, there will be beading workshops taught by Arnia Van Vuuren, Debbie Rijns, Dawn Clarke, and Tamara Honaman (a full list and bios are posted on the group's web site). Classes include wire work, metal fabrication, metal clay, fiber, bead stringing, bead weaving, and bead crochet.

You can find a complete list of classes and other events running during the exhibit at the Beadex web site.
