The workshop program is chosen to provide an opportunity for beginning, advanced and expert beaders alike and has a rich sample of Ms Rutledge's impressive body of work.

This is the first time a bead artist of Cynthia Rutledge's level will be travelling to Adelaide to provide workshops and we are hoping it will be the start of tempting well known artists and beaders to South Australia in the future.
