Hello Everyone, The new guild season will begin with our first meeting on September 8th, 2018. The new schedule can be viewed on the Calendrier/Calendar page. In 2019, we will have our bi-annual exhibition. After evaluating the rising costs and limited visibility of doing the show at Centre Récréatif, Culturel et Sportif Saint-Zotique, we (the executives) made the decision to find a new venue for our exhibition. After lots of searching we decided that Meteque Atelier d'Art would be the best and most reasonably priced location. You can visit their website at meteque.ca . This location will cost the guild more but we felt that having the show in a better location was worth the extra cost. We have also planned a series of fund raising activities. We hope that this new venue will get everyone excited and motivated for the upcoming show. Details will be provided at the first meeting on September 8th. Happy hooking, and we are looking forward to seeing you all on the 8th.
