The Pima Air & Space Museum has teamed up with the national charity Beads of Courage to host the Beads in Space temporary exhibit. Beads of Courage hosted a international contest for bead makers to enter their artwork for consideration for the Beads in Space project. Out of 54 beads entered, 17 were selected to accompany NASA's STS-132 mission on shuttle Atlantis in May of 2010. The temporary exhibit will be located in the Dorothy Finley Space Gallery November 1, 2010 - April 30, 2011, with special Kids Activities on November 20 and 21, 2010 from 10:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.(the above info was taken directly from the Pima Air & Space website linked above)
and...I'm so proud of that poster. Two of my little beads are featured on the left side of it. Woot!
Congrats! Your beads look great on the poster.
