Programs, Presentations, and Meetings:
During part of the year, we hold special meetings focusing on a particular aspect of weaving and/or fiber arts. These meetings are led by invited expert guests or knowledgeable fiber artists from within our own ranks. These programs run September through April with a few exceptions noted in the calendar listing. We also have guild gatherings during the busy holiday months and the summer where we kick back to enjoy good food and company. If you share (or think you might share) an interest in weaving and fiber arts, please feel free to drop in and introduce yourself. We’d love to meet you.
Stay tuned for our schedule or sign up for our blog feed via email or RSS reader (in the sidebar).

We are coming to Gainesville for winter, 2017. We are members of the Algoma Weaver’s Guild of Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, although we live are from the American side of the border. We look forward to visiting with you this winter!
We look forward to seeing you. Our members are very approachable, warm, and welcoming. We definitely encourage guest visits. Please feel free to bring anything for show and tell. We love to see what everyone is doing.
