The Beaded Prayers Project by Sonya Clark (ISBN: 9781934253205) is offered here in softcover, graded Near Fine. This copy shows a scrape down the center of the front cover at the top two inches, with corners and spine ends lightly bumped. Minor edgewear can be seen on the cover in spots, and a light scrape is present on the bottom edge of the textblock. The binding is tight, and the contents are notably clean, unmarked, and attractive throughout. Launched in 1998, The Beaded Prayers Project is a groundbreaking collaborative art initiative inspired by African amulet traditions and projects like the Names AIDS Memorial Quilt. Orchestrated by acclaimed fiber artist Sonya Clark, it invites participants of all backgrounds to craft beaded prayer packets—a blend of reflection, hope, and artistry intended to foster community. Over 5,000 people have participated, with exhibits shown at more than 35 venues worldwide. Clark’s work connects material culture, communal ritual, and the profundity of handmade art, earning her recognition for advancing contemporary discussions on creativity and identity.…

Terms of sale

Shipping terms
Orders ship within 2 business days of payment - typically next day. Orders are shipped via USPS media mail at a flat rate of $6 and $2 for each additional item. Orders can also be shipped via USPS priority mail for $15 for the first book. For both services, customers will be contacted if heavy/oversized books require additional shipping costs, or if the shipping destination requires additional shipping costs.
Important note for non-US buyers: International orders are billed at cost, and this cost varies greatly with the weight and size of the order. If you are ordering oversized volumes or multiple books, expect notably higher shipping costs. When you place your order, I will estimate the shipping options and costs with PirateShip and email you about these options. When we agree on a shipping method, I will send an invoice for the additional shipping costs through Abebooks, and will pack and ship the order once this is paid. If it turns out that your order costs less to ship than the default international shipping cost that I use for my books, I will reiumburse you for the difference.
