Mountain Spinners and Weavers Guild
​A Fiber Arts Community in Prescott, Arizona

Meetings are held on the 3rd Saturday of every month at the Granite Peak Unitarian Universalist Congregation, 882 Sunset Ave., Prescott, AZ, just two blocks behind the True Value on Miller Valley Rd. Our meetings begin at 9:00 a.m. with a business meeting, followed by social time and then the program at 10:30 a.m.
​

Since the advent of Covid-19, our monthly meetings are available either in person at Granite Peak Unitarian Universalist Congregation or via Zoom. Guests can attend up to two monthly meetings before being required to join the Guild. Although masks are not required at our in-person meetings, the CDC recommends wearing masks and maintaining social distancing when attending indoor events. If you would like to attend a monthly meeting via Zoom, please email us at info@mtnspinweave.org.  The Zoom link is emailed to the members a few days before the meeting.
