Welcome to the start of the 2025/2026 weaving year!
September Program: a Round Table on the theme of Building Connections and Collaborations, 2025/2026.

Moderator: Susan Capalbo.
Discussion: The BWG has had many successful year-long, guild-wide efforts that have brought together BWG members to reconnect and collaborate on a project or goal. Most recently the BAM Sept 2024 display and the past BWG guild booth efforts during MAWS have provided platforms for collaborating and enhancing connections among Guild members.

So, is there an interest and opportunity in 2025/2026 to build upon this legacy and create a project(s), and if so how should we proceed? The Guild participants in the Round table will take a first crack at thinking back to past efforts by our guild or other guilds and the benefits of these collaborations, and suggesting some new projects and how these may connect to the goals and objectives of the Guild to support fiber arts throughout the State/region. We invite all guild members to chime in with their thoughts; we will conclude with next steps.
