Liz Moncrief, ANWG Education Director, is now scheduling a monthly movie night to be staged on the Zoom platform. The ‘movies’ are not full features of course but snippets (some long some short) which highlight our shared interests in weaving, spinning, fiber plants/animals/tools and as many other categories as we can come up with. She currently has 30+ links in her list for our lineup and will try to mix it up each month so that all members will find something of interest.
Movie Bites will run from 6:30 pm – 8:00 Pacific Time Zone, which accommodates most ANWG members. Grab your popcorn, weaving, knitting, spinning and join us. We’re hoping it’ll be a fun new venture.
ANWG is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
Details for the May meeting will be coming soon.
Please remember that we are now on a 6:30-8:00 pm schedule to accommodate the majority of our members.
For questions or suggestions please contact Liz Moncrief, ANWG Education Chair.
