The Glass Bead is a quarterly publication of the International Society of Glass Beadmakers and is distributed to all ISGB members. The Glass Bead is a four-color glossy quarterly filled with useful information, beautiful images, and connections to other beadmakers and suppliers. The Glass Bead includes educational, artistic, professional, and technical information for beadmakers, special announcements and calls for entries, news and reports from the ISGB Board of Directors,  glass beadmaking news and events in each region, and advertising from vendors serving the community of glass beadmakers.

The Glass Bead Is For You.
