Teaching PG, Indigenous culture through beading workshops

PRINCE GEORGE – Crystal Behn is currently the Indigenous Programmer at Two Rivers Gallery and she also runs the beads and bannock workshop. In this workshop, people learn to create authentic indigenous crafts, using everything from Moose hide, fish scales, porcupine quills, and beadwork.

“It’s open to everyone, not just Indigenous people, I’ve had people message me and say, can I come even though I am not Indigenous? and yes. It’s important for everyone to learn” explains Crystal Behn, Indigenous Programmer at Two Rivers Gallery,

Behn, has been running the workshop since last September, she says it has become so popular that they have had to expand the class and time, and put people on a waiting list.
