Study Groups 2009--2010

The Guild offers study groups throughout the year.  These are free to all Guild members (except for materials).  Guild volunteers lead the study groups in techniques requested by members.  You may join a study group at any time by contacting the group’s leader.  Signing up for a study group involves committing to a monthly meeting and active participation in the group.
