Some of the vendors from that first show are still with her today, including Andrea Guarino, The Bead Goes On, Marilyn Berg, and Talisman Associates. That first show was swamped with customers every day. People were thrilled because this was the only exclusively bead show among the several gem, mineral, and fossil shows in Tucson. Due to this success, Ava added a second Whole Bead Show the same year in Monterey, California. By the third year, Ava was organizing seven Whole Bead Shows throughout the United States.
