January meeting
We are a group of fiber enthusiasts who promote the art of spinning. We meet monthly, during the day, usually the first Friday, at the Givens-Belet Memorial Hall, on Route 521 in Blairstown, NJ, just south of Route 94. Meetings start at 9:30 am and run until about 2 pm. Four meetings of the year are business meetings, and at the rest there is usually a program involving some aspect of the fiber arts. A guest may attend two meetings before application for membership becomes mandatory. Membership dues are $20 per year.

In addition to our monthly meetings, guild members frequently demonstrate spinning and other fiber arts at various fairs and events in the area, including the Garden State Sheepbreeders Show in the fall.

For more information, please contact us using the form on the page here.
