The Victoria Handweavers and Spinners Guild was formed on March 7, 1934, when a group of ten women met at the Women’s Institute to teach weaving: https://vhwsg.ca/about/guild-history/
In celebration of the Guild’s 90th anniversary, we will be holding a Garment Challenge, Fashion Show and Tea in May 2024. Guild members are encouraged to use their talents for spinning, knitting, weaving, felting, sewing, etc., to create garments. While we have not determined the venue for the event, our current plan is for models wearing the garments to circulate the room while attendees enjoy a Cream Team and admire the fashions and handwork. There will be awards and prizes!
We will be updating the website as more details are finalized. To contact the organizers, send an email to show@vhwsg.ca . Also, if you are interested in helping with the organization of this event, please let us know!
For more information and the Rules and Regulations see the 90th Anniversary page.
Helpline within the Guild – gethelp@vhwsg.ca
The aim of the help line is to help make connections between members easier. The challenge for many of us is what to do or who to talk to when we need help or support, want more information, have a question or problem. The help line provides one place for any member to make an initial contact with a guild member who can assist them.
