Bedazzling ‘Bead Bash’ celebrates Behringer-Crawford exhibit

Costumers, craftspeople and collectors gathered at Behringer- Crawford Museum for a “Bead Bash” at the opening reception for the museum’s exhibit, “From Rituals to Runways: The Art of the Bead.”

The exhibit features beads of all shapes, sizes, materials and uses, from religious practices to currency to pure decoration. A highlight is a display of elaborately beaded costumes worn by the pop star Cher for concerts and the “Sonny & Cher” TV show during the 1970s. The museum remains closed through April 7, at which point a decision will be made about continuing the exhibit.
