 Here are some educational opportunities, from among the many provided by Embroiderers' Guild of America, unique to the Great Lakes Region. For information on programs offered nationally by EGA, please visit http://www.egausa.org/. Educational Opportunities specific to the Great Lakes Region
Try a
new technique & hone your skills! Check out the Group Correspondence Courses for GLR for 2009 !
Group Correspondence Courses are a wonderful opportunity to try out new techniques or improve your mastery of your favorite type of stitching at a reasonable cost. If your chapter cannot fill a Group Correspondence Course, the Great Lakes Region has budgeted funds allowing participants to enroll in GC Courses even if enrollment in a selected course is relatively low. (Enrollment is open to groups and chapters as well.) The GLR GCC Coordinator serves as a liaison between students and designers/teachers. You will not have a local group leader and you will be stitching on your own. Classes for 2009 will include four new offerings: My Favorite Bracelet (Jun2007, p49), Moonlight Sonata (Dec2007, p49), Morning Glories (Sep2007, p44), and Summer Dream (Sep2007, p44). Other classes are encore classes. Together these courses represent a variety of techniques and skill levels. For details about content and approximate cost of materials, consult the GCC section of the EGA Education Supplement 2007–2008. The new classes have been described in Needle Arts magazine as noted above. Registration deadline is November 1, 2008.
Chapter-sponsored workshopsChapters offer workshops and programs taught by local members and traveling teachers. If you are not a member of EGA and wish to participate in any of these exciting educational opportunities, we invite you to contact a chapter near you. Education
