The guild welcomes everyone, including people who have never touched polymer clay or worked with crafts in any way. Our active membership has a huge range of skills and interests, from absolute beginners to nationally known experts and teachers.
Everyone is friendly, willing to share, ready to learn from each other, and open to trying new things.
If you wish to become a member or have questions, please email the Membership Chair.
