Our premier event is Auckland Festival of Quilts. This show is presented by the AQG every two years. This is our opportunity to share our work with the public at large.
The exhibition comprises a display of members’ work divided into various categories, demonstrations of products and techniques, a merchants’ mall selling the latest in fabrics, quilt related products and Christmas decorations, and a special exhibition related to the theme for the year.
All members are encouraged to enter.

Challenges
The AQG was fortunate to be gifted a sum of money to be used towards creating member challenges. This money was used well with a positive response from members. You are welcome to visit the gallery of previous challenges to get an idea of what has been completed to date.
The challenge pieces tend to be smaller in size with consideration given for freedom of artistic interpretation and expression.

Guild Meetings
Guild meetings are held regularly (typically monthly – but please check the dates on the website or in the newsletter to keep up to date).
At our Guild meetings members are invited to share their current work and projects with Show and Tell. The AQG arranges for guest speakers to inform, educate and enthrall you with their varied stories and interesting knowledge and skills.
All members are encouraged to attend the meetings. This is a great opportunity to mix and mingle with other members and meet the Committee working hard to bring great opportunities to the members.
