Alpine Weavers and Spinners Guild in Kalispell, Montana, is excited to host the 2028 Montana Association of Weavers and Spinners statewide conference. The dates are Sept. 14 – 18, 2028, and the theme is Fall.Fiber.Flathead.
This conference is held every two years around the state. Kalispell is less than an hour’s drive to Glacier National Park. There is a wide variety of outdoor recreation in the area, including hot springs, hiking and bike trails, and other activities. September is an ideal time to visit the Flathead Valley when the weather is lovely, and the larch trees are showing their beautiful golden hues.
The MAWS Conference attracts approximately 150 attendees each year, and in the past, we have featured some notable instructors, including Tom Knisely, Heavenly Bresser, Kate Larson, and Denise Kovnat.
We are seeking proposals for workshops and seminars in weaving, spinning, dyeing, felting, surface embellishment, braiding, knitting, crochet, basketry, and more.
Conference workshops and seminars will be 1/2, 1, 2, or 3-day classes held Thursday through Monday. Instructors will be paid a teaching fee, plus reasonable travel, and on-site room and board. Prospective instructors are welcome to submit multiple proposals. You must submit a separate, complete form for each workshop you are proposing. Proposals will not be considered complete without photos! Photos may be emailed or linked if they are large and cannot be attached to the form. Proposals must be received by June 1, 2026. All applicants will receive notification regarding acceptance or non-acceptance of their proposals by Sept. 1, 2026.
We would love to entertain your proposals for this fun, lively, and educational event. Please email us for workshop proposal form.
Sincerely,
The MAWS 2028 Conference Committee
