Upcoming Events

The Guild of Irish Lacemakers holds roughly 7 “Lace Days” a year – these are days where we hold classes in various types of lacemaking, we have a social table for people to come work on projects outside of a class, and we hold a raffle. Tea, coffee, and great company provided!

The dates, classes and registration for our Lace Days will be advertised through emails from the guild, on our social media channels, and will be added to this page.

We also take part in a variety of other craft-related events throughout the year, which will also be noted here.
