Educational Meetings
In a typical year, you have over 60 meetings to choose from. Most are Subgroup meetings dedicated to a variety of special interests. Most are held throughout the state of NH. Some have been held in nearby states as well.
General Meetings
Typically, the Guild has four major meetings per year, usually on a Saturday in September, November, February and April. These may be single or multi-presenter demonstrations or presentations. Topics have included everything from furniture design to “how-to” presentations on dovetails, compound laminations, sharpening, windsor chair making and more. Officers are elected at our annual meeting in September where there is also a tool auction or flea market to benefit the Guild Operating Fund.
Special Interest Subgroup Meetings
These groups plan their own meetings and other activities, typically meeting three to six (or more) times per year at shops and other facilities around the state. Learn more about our subgroups here.
Small Meetings
As the Guild has grown and attendance at Guild meetings increased, we found it more and more difficult to meet in member shops. Many missed the opportunity of visiting other shops and the more intimate setting. To fill this void, twice a month give or take a bit we schedule small meetings each with a different topic.
