workshops for both beginner, youth, seniors, and experienced weavers. AWG often invites
participation from neighbouring guilds in Michigan, U.S.A. and Elliot Lake, ON.
The Algoma Weavers' Guild has been operating out of the Sault Ste. Marie Museum for the
past 5 years, allowing for the Guild to continue to engage with the public, host meetings, skill
sharing, workshops, and provide community programming. Being present in the Sault Ste.
Marie Museum has also allowed for a continued engagement with the history and culture
enhanced by the vast collection, archives, and research holdings within the Museum.
