May 2, 2018, Wednesday - Bee Squad Charity Trunk Show - Gumuchian Fine Jewelry (2 days)

Time: 10am - 5:30pm

Location: JB Hudson Jewelers, 901 Nicollet Mall

Bee Squad Charity Trunk Show

JB Hudson Jewelers and Gumuchian Fine Jewelry are proud to sponsor the University of Minnesota Bee Squad in their critical work supporting bee and pollinator health in the Midwest. For 2018 and beyond, partial proceeds from Gumuchian ‘B’ collection sales nationwide benefit the University of Minnesota Bee Lab and Bee Squad.

Join us to celebrate the launch of this partnership with a two-day Gumuchian trunk show - hosted in the iconic JB Hudson store at 901 Nicollet Ave, with complimentary valet parking.

Inspired by Dr. Marla Spivak at the University of Minnesota (UMN) Bee Lab, the Bee Squad helps beekeepers and the community foster healthy bee populations and pollinator landscapes through education and hands-onmentorship. They also communicate the latest bee research to audiences that are passionate about helping bees. They have a multitude of programs to help bees by educating people. Currently, Bee Veterans, Bee Arts, and Pollinator Ambassadors, a project that provides pollinator outreach training to diverse groups ranging from high school students to adult Spanish-speaking immigrants, are part of the Bee Squad.

Owners of Gumuchian’s “B” Collection can wear the baubles with pride, knowing they are supporting conservation efforts. The mini “B” is chic yet accessible at only $600.00 retail. The “B” diamonds by the year with a sophisticated honeycomb bezel is our most popular, suggested retail $5,200. And for those looking to make a statement, our beloved “life of the honeybee” charm bracelet is a real conversation starter. Each piece is crafted in the Gumuchian workshop in New York.
