Hello Weavers,
As Exhibit Coordinator for the Guild, I was disappointed we were not able to schedule our regular show at the Beachwood Library in the Spring of 2019. After presenting some options to the Guild at our January meeting, I am very pleased to report we have a go-ahead for our show to be at the Chagrin Arts office showroom during May and the first week of June. I received enthusiastic responses to this option at the meeting. The visibility of this space is excellent for walking traffic in Chagrin Falls, especially during the event filled May and June months.
 We will be able to hang our show in Early May, have it available for Mother’s Day, Memorial Day and during the Art by the Falls art show June 8 & 9th.  The Executive Director of Chagrin Arts was also very enthusiastic to help us with opening hours, like week ends, and clearing the space of present art. The Director of the Valley Art Center was wonderfully supportive of the Guild’s show during Art by the Falls. This will mean we will want to set a schedule of weavers at our show during some of the greatest traffic times for the Village events. Maybe with demonstrations.
 I have a wonderful list of Show Committee volunteers with whom I will be in touch and we will send details to everyone in the next months. Meantime, of course– thinking of Spring, Weave On!

She writes:

Is anyone planning to attend MLH in Holland, MI this year? The conference is May 30-June 4th. I just booked a room at Haworth Inn to avoid all the dorm craziness. Plus it has AC, continental breakfast, parking, etc. The cost per person (two queen beds) is approx the same as the dorms and much nicer! I’m looking for a roommate! Please contact me at (216)299-0676. Registration for MLH begins January 7th.
I will be out of the country Jan 17- 24 so leave a message on my home phone (440)473-2244 and I’ll return it when I get back.
