The Kansas Alliance of Weavers and Spinners (KAWS) annual conference is coming soon!

KAWS 2024 – Sustainability in Fiber Arts is sponsored this year by The Fiber Guild of Greater Kansas City, and will be held on October 18 & 19 in Roeland Park, Kansas.

Find all the details on the Guild’s website, and register ASAP before classes fill up!

The fun begins on Friday evening with a reception and artist showcase. Classes are offered on Saturday morning and afternoon, vendors will be open all day, and other activities are scattered throughout. This year’s keynote speaker will be Christine Long-Derks of Treasure Goddess Yarrrrrn.

This annual conference is always a great time to meet and visit with fellow fiber artists, to encourage others and return home inspired! Those who are members of affiliated Guilds are automatically KAWS members, but non-members are always welcome to the conference, and are encouraged to register (with a very minimal additional fee).
