Any fellow crafters in the Tucson and surrounding areas: The local Tucson Tandy Leather has offered their space as a meeting spot for leather crafters to start a guild for the Tucson area! They are inviting crafters to the first meeting next Tuesday, May 23, 2017 from 6pm-8pm. I think it would be great to meet with people and see what they have done. It's like a leatherworker.net in real life! I am pretty sure I will be able to attend and I will pass on this site to anyone who would like more information. I truly appreciate all of your input! Here is the info from their flyer: Tandy Leather Factory 3455 S Palo Verde Dr. #167 Tucson, AZ 85713 Please RSVP: 520-519-0750 Please bring a project that you have finished or one that you are working on. We will be meeting to get your input on developing a leatherworking guild for the Tucson area. This is a great opportunity to share skills and knowledge with fellow leatherworkers of all skill levels from beginner to professional. If you are interested in leadership please let Kathy at Tandy know. Please know that Tandy would love to house all future guild meetings, but that this guild will be established and maintained by those who attend. Tandy will be open during whatever hours your establish for guild meetings.

I just wanted to let everyone know that we have a new guild in KS. We are the Wheat State Leather Guild. We are currently meeting second Sunday of the month at the Derby Dillons Marketplace community room from 3 pm to 6 pm. We do have a facebook page and my contact info is Annenewkold@gmail.com or 316-217-2641 https://www.facebook.com/groups/1508259379406270/

Is there a leather Guild in the Portland Area? Or club or meet up group? I would like to meet with people and talk leather and equipment! Trade original patterns and services if possible. Trying to network with Portland Leatherworkers! I've heard about classes in the area but don't really want to cough up $300 bones to share ideas. I'd rather learn from someone who wants to share instead of bill me for a lesson. Any suggestions?

Trying to get a rough estimate of interest in the Portland/Vancouver area for a Leather Guild. Maybe we have enough people to do something! I tried to use the "Manage Topic Poll" but nothing shows up in preview. Here is a link to an external poll if my efforts didn't work. http://poll.pollcode.com/xqe31 Thanks! disregard botom link! hooray it worked!

The Chesapeake Leatherworkers Guild is now forming, centered in in the area served by the Essex, Maryland Tandy store. For additional information, contact Karen at CactusWrenLeather@gmail.com.
