The Bead Society of Victoria

The Bead Society of Victoria Inc. (BSV) was founded in 1994, by beading enthusiasts with a desire to found an organisation, that would incorporate beadwork into the arts and craft movement in Australia.  A common passion for creating inspirational jewellery and non-jewellery pieces using a variety of media, has seen the BSV grow into a congenital and inclusive organisation supported by volunteers. 

The annual Bead Expo, monthly member meetings, zoom gatherings, special events, competitions and workshops with local and international tutors, all form part of our embracing organisation that encourages participation by everyone at all skill levels.
