The Weaving Guilds of Oregon (WeGO) are excited to host the 2023 Association of Northwest Weavers’ Guilds (ANWG) Conference in Oregon.  We’ll use this website to provide information leading up to the conference, keeping you updated on how our venue search and plans are progressing, along with details about events, workshops, seminars, and other exciting aspects of the conference.  As soon as we have new dates it will be announced here.  The new website  https://anwgconference.org/archive/2023/  is up and running now, the 2021 website information is redirected to this site.  Please update your bookmarks and we’re happy to say that all of you who have signed up to receive the blog will automatically transfer to the 2023 site blog list.

You can learn about the conference theme, Fiber Connections, and how it celebrates the connections that are made as a result of the coming together of people and fibers. You can also read about the significance behind the conference colors, and how they have been chosen to represent the host state of Oregon and what it is that connects us to the other states and provinces of the ANWG.

It is our hope that the information provided on this website will encourage you to make plans to attend this exiting conference. In addition to traditional events such as the ever-popular fashion show, spirited juried and open shows, wide-array of guild booth displays, lively market hall, and inspiring keynote address, we’ve also lined up unique events and amazing new shows.

As we move closer to summer 2023, we’ll rollout out more information about the conference and events on this website, so stay tuned! Or better yet, if you’re interested in receiving email updates, sign up and we’ll send information to your inbox as it becomes available.
