Events - Southwest Women's Fiber Arts Collective

Fall Fiber Arts Sale

This year’s Fall Fiber Arts Sale will be held Saturday, October 10th, and Sunday, October 11th. This sale traditionally offers weavings, knits, dyed, re-created, felted, sewn, paper arts and more. Largely due to vendor and member feedback last fall, the FFAS will, once again, be held at the Murray Hotel Ballroom in downtown Silver City. An amazing array of fiber arts to purchase! Check here for updates.

Learning in Community

Please reach out to us at i nformation@fiberartscollective.org if you would like to lead a class or have an idea for a class for which you’d like SWFAC to identify an instructor. Sharing our talents and skills is fun!

Mending Our Ways is an outreach program that we do in collaboration with The Future Forge. We offer free mending to our community to keep good clothing from the landfill. We also teach how to mend.

The next **Mending our Ways** repair day with be **Saturday, May 30, 2026 from 10 am to 12 noon** at the Future Forge in Silver City. Community members can bring items that need a small repair like replacing a button or a tear in a shirt or pants.

Member Meetings & Mental Health and Fiber Days

We meet monthly for a brief member meeting and afterward to socialize with other members and share our fiber art activities. Usually held on the third Thursday of each month. The middle month of each quarter has a stash swap.

Members are notified about location shortly before meetings.
