Welcome! We are excited to bring Beads of Courage experiences to our Beads of Courage Members & their families virtually and in local communities!
Beads of Courage in St. Paul, MN
Beads of Courage and the American Woodturners Association (AAW) have partnered together for years to support Beads of Courage Members! Beads of Courage members find strength in a whole new way by receiving handcrafted, beautiful lidded bowls donated by the members of the AAW. This gift provides a safe space for Beads of Courage Members to keep their Beads of Courage while providing a beautiful way to honor their strength and courage while coping with serious illness.
The annual AAW symposium is being held in St. Paul, MN this year – June 12-15, 2025. The symposium features events where you can see inspirational wood art, try out new tools and gear, celebrate your peers’ accomplishments, support charities, and get your family involved.
Access to certain events and the demonstrations requires a paid registration.
General Admission to the Tradeshow, Instant Gallery, and Exhibitions is FREE and requires a wristband.
Members of the American Association of Woodturners will be bringing their one-of-a-kind bowls and boxes handcrafted with love for our members to the symposium. Order your Dream Bowl today and we will lovingly package up a bowl for you to receive directly from the collection featured at 2025 AAW Symposium!
All bowls and boxes are generously donated by members of the American Association of Woodturners, but we kindly request a donation of $20 to help cover the shipping costs to be shipped directly to your house.
Please note:
This offer is for US residents only due to shipping costs.
Please allow up to three weeks for delivery following the order
