Launched in 2016, SAQA Seminar is a project offered through the Education Committee just for SAQA members. We wanted to provide members with opportunities to learn more about a particular topic, share their expertise, ask questions, have conversations, and meet new people.
Offered once a year over a two month period (late January to February), SAQA Seminar is a multi-media collection of content that includes articles, video conversations, and more! All the offerings are accessible online and participants are sent weekly emails for each unit. We have also scheduled weekly Zoom chats to discuss the content.
We are confident everyone will find something interesting, instructive or inspiring whether you’re new to art quilting or you’ve been creating art with fabric and stitching for years. And remember, all this great content is totally FREE for SAQA members!
