The Illinois Prairie Weavers Guild was organized in 1949 to promote and advance handweaving by coming together to teach, encourage and inspire one another by sharing our knowledge and resources, and providing the opportunity to learn from experienced weavers. Members come from the western suburbs and Chicago.  The guild is open to anyone interested in weaving.  Meetings are held at the Congregation Etz Chaim, 1710 S. Highland Avenue, Lombard, IL, on the 2^nd Tuesday of each month at 10 am September through June.  Dues are $25.00 per year payable in June.
