Another Minnesota State Fair has come and gone, and because of your help, we were able to represent the Weavers Guild of Minnesota to a record-setting audience, just shy of 2 million attendants! Thank you to all who volunteered, demonstrated, offered guidance for volunteer coordinating, ran errands for supplies, and all who entered their work into the craft exhibitions, showcasing the fine work you do! My time at the fair demonstrating was filled with curious visitors who asked excellent questions and were excited to have found an organization which was precisely what they were looking for. May we continue to carry that positivity from the fair for the crafts we do, the pride we take in our work and organization, and the welcoming spirit you all demonstrated at the fair with us into the fall. Thank you again, we couldn’t have done it without you! -Maddy Bartsch, WGM board of directors member and committee lead
