Whatcom Weavers Guild meetings are held on the second Wednesday of the
month, September through June. Meetings are open to all members and
visitors are welcome. Following a social time and a brief "show and
tell" of newly created items by Guild members, a quick business meeting is
held before the evening's program begins.
Meeting programs are developed to interest weavers and all fiber artists
alike. Programs such as lectures, slide presentations and
hands-on-learning activities bring members together to discover (or
re-discover) interesting tricks, techniques, histories, and everything
else under the sun to help stimulate a creative spark.
Often times programs are geared around
a specific workshop scheduled for guild members allowing for the group as
a whole to learn from visiting fiber artists.
