a message from our president
Welcome to Chattahoochee Handweavers Guild, a vibrant organization dedicated to fostering and supporting weaving and other fiber related arts. We offer meetings, programs, exhibits, workshops, classes, and demonstrations at community events.
Due to the ongoing effects of the pandemic our face-to-face contact continues to be limited. We were able to resume in-person classes in June 2021 but larger gatherings for meetings will continue to be held via Zoom until further notice. Our meetings are held each month except for July, August and December and visitors are always welcome to attend. If you are interested in attending, please send an email to membership@chgweavers.org and request the Zoom link. Members will receive the link in their Fiber Focus newsletter.
