Monthly Guild Meetings
Time & Place
Monthly meetings are held on the second Wednesday of each month from 6:30pm to 8:30pm at the Cheshire County Court House, 12 Court Street, 2nd Floor, Keene, NH. Doors open at 6:00 for visiting with each other! Members who want to gather beforehand to socialize and/or eat before our meetings are welcome to meet up with us at 5:30pm at Panera Bread's new location at 2B Ash Brook Road, Keene, NH.
Monthly Door Prizes
At the beginning of every meeting there is an opportunity for you to purchase raffle tickets for $1.00 each. At the end of the night names are pulled for that meeting's monthly door prizes.
Show & Tell
At every meeting there is an opportunity to show off your current finished projects. Bring a couple to share with the group, it's a fun way to see what others have been working on and to admire our guild members talents.
Community Giving Donation Collection
Monthly meetings are also a good place to bring your finished donation projects. See the Community Giving page for the descriptions, sizes, patterns, and information on the donation items that are to be collected and to whom they should be given too.
Winter Weather Reminder
Safety comes first. If school is cancelled, then the guild meeting is cancelled.

This is a notable fundraiser for the guild usually held in May. Members donate packaged items from their stashes to be auctioned off.
