Having missed but 2 of the past 12 years at the Tucson Shows, I'll be sad to miss this one - I'm shooting for even years now. It is the bead mecca of the world for one month each winter, many would agree!

Our policy for commercial ads is that they be placed on our Classifieds page, which works exactly the same way as our discussion board page. But for the Tucson season, I make exceptions for a couple of reasons. Because there are over 40 shows taking place there each year over the period of approximately a month, it is in itself a Large Bead Event. Every serious bead collector/specialist/hobbyist should try to get there at least once. And so we facilitate communication about it. And in order to access further acquisition of the fabulous beads we all love, we need Bead Events and to share info about them.

May it be a safe and fruitful Tucson Season for all!
