Joining and Membership

Membership is open to any age, gender or nationality working in any textile media. All exhibiting members are subject to continuous selection by their peers. Members who do not submit or do not have work selected for three consecutive years forfeit membership. This rigorous criteria of continuous selection plays a vital role in stimulating the Group to grow and develop.

Contact between members is maintained by a regular newsletter, regional meetings and an Annual General Meeting (AGM) - at which there are sometimes special lectures.

The annual membership fee for an exhibiting member is £45.00 GBP Sterling. This covers newsletters, publications, organising of exhibitions and the AGM.

New members pay a reduced fee in their first year proportional to the length of time left in the financial year when they are accepted as members.
