About Us

 


The Anchorage Weavers and Spinners Guild is a non-profit organization dedicated to the encouragement of the fiber arts in Alaska. The guild seeks to promote the exhibition of fiber arts and to inform its members and the public through lectures, workshops and craft demonstrations.

We hold monthly meetings from September through May, often featuring a guest speaker. at 10:00 a.m. the second Saturday of the month at the Anchorage Museum of History and Art. Other Guild activities include beginning weaving and spinning classes, workshops led by professional instructors, demonstration of weaving and spinning at local events, participation in the Alaska State Fair, and a spring and fall fiber retreat in cooperation with the Valley Fiber Arts Guild.

The guild has a library of spinning and weaving books, videos and equipment available for rent to members.

Upcoming Workshops!
We have many very qualified and exciting instructors willing to come to Alaska. We are trying to plan for upcoming workshops and would like some input from guild members! Many of the instructors would like to have 15 students so this means we all need to get excited and think about commitments. Hopefully we can get the interest to bring all of these instructors up here in the next few years. Print this questionaire and give us your choices!
