When and Where We Meet
Fiber Frolics are held on the second Thursday of each month. These evenings are dedicated to socializing and casual education. Bring your projects and your questions; you're sure to find someone who is happy to provide encouragement. These meetings are being held via Zoom until April 2023 when we return to in-person Frolics at the location listed below.
Program meetings are held on the fourth Thursday of every month except for November and December — those meetings are combined for a holiday party on the second Thursday of December. We aim to provide an educational presentation every time we meet. We have enjoyed some excellent guest speakers who have presented on a wide variety of topics in the fiber arts. These will be held via Zoom until further notice.
Beginning in April 2023, Fiber Frolics will run from 7 to 9 PM at:
Zion Lutheran Church
18 Quarry Road
Leola, PA 17540
See the Contact page for a map. You can park and enter at the back of the church building.
