Where lacemaking lives on  
 
 

Join Us!
As a Charter Chapter of the International Old Lacers, Inc., the objectives of the Chesapeake Region Lace Guild are to promote interest in the fine old laces, to preserve fine laces for posterity, to study the history and characteristics of lace, to teach and promote lacemaking and lace identification, to promote and encourage lace exhibits, and to encourage museums that own lace collections to exhibit their collections and make them generally available for viewing by the public at large.

Membership is open to anyone interested in the art of lacemaking or in collecting or studying lace. Never tried lacemaking before? Several of our members are proficient teachers and are happy to teach new students. Annual dues are $15. Members receive the Guild's newsletter six times a year and are eligible to borrow books and videos from the Guild's library at no charge.
