When we meet in person, we meet on the 4th Tuesday of each month, except December, at the Christ Lutheran Church at 311 N. Hershey Dr. in Normal, IL. Currently we are meeting via ZOOM until we determine that it is safe to meet again in person.
Each monthly meeting consists of announcements, guild activities and presentations, and show and tell. Visitors are welcome! Your first meeting is free! Yearly dues are $35 if paid in person or by check. A PayPal option $36.50 is available and includes the Paypal fee.
