SUMMARY:Heritage Weavers
DESCRIPTION:Meeting Place: Dean Hall \nContact Person: Lise Loader \n \nThis collective has expanded significantly from a core group over the last few years\, to the point where space and equipment have become limiting factors. There are now 7 looms of various sizes and styles at MERA. Several of these looms are set up with extra-long warps which become cooperative projects that various members work on when they can.\nThe weavers gather to plan and work on projects and are available to share ideas\, advice and enthusiasm with each other and newer weavers. It’s an apprentice-like learn-as-you-go environment suited to those who have taken an introduction to weaving weekend workshop at a guild. MERA has on occasion had enough interest to hold such a workshop\, but there is none planned this fall. \nAs with all groups at the schoolhouse\, you must have a MERA membership to become a regular member of the MERA Heritage Weavers. \nView Gallery & History \nCheck out the 2018 MERA Weavers Exhibition: Still Weaving After 20 Years
