Founded in 1922, the Weavers' Guild of Boston is the oldest weavers' guild in the United States. With over 300 members worldwide, our monthly meetings aim to educate members and the general public in the artistic and technical aspects of handweaving and to advance the standards of handweaving.
Members also enjoy a choice of two to four workshops each meeting (workshop registration begins August 15), an extensive library, a Ratings program, Education Grants, special extended workshops, Guild Challenges, and participation in our Annual Sale.
The Guild meets the second Wednesday of the month from September to November and from February to May. Guests are always welcome.
In the 2023-2024 challenge - Artful Blankets - members were asked to create a lap blanket inspired by a painting by a Massachusetts artist. 17 members contributed a blanket to be donated to a wheelchair bound person. This lovely blanket entitled Quiet Waters was woven by Barbara Herbster.
