The
Youngstown Area Weaver’s Guild is a non profit organization of Active
fiber artist from Trumbull, Mahoning and Columbiana Counties who enjoy
learning and experimenting with fibers. Founded in 1954, the main
function of the guild is to promote and support its members enabling
them to express their creativity in weaving and to broaden the
awareness of fiber art in the community.
We offer programs, lectures and guest artist workshops in weaving,
spinning, basketry techniques, natural dyes, felting and other fiber
related arts.
We demonstrate at the local festivals, fairs, schools, community
celebration’s and other events.
We have done fiber exhibits & fashion shows, at some of the many
exhibit facilities available in the Mahoning Valley. The exhibits
offer a rich diversity of Fiber arts which makes an exciting and
informative show. We have done a fashion show at the Midwest
Conference, exhibits at community libraries, Boarders book store and
have had a space at the December craft show at the Butler Art
Institute.
