The Lake Erie Fiber Guild was formed in 1998 and consists of artists from New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio. This vibrant dedicated group creates art quilts, textile wall hangings that have been embroidered, woven, knitted and crocheted. Their works also include sculpted dolls, wearable art clothing, suspended fiber sculpture, intricate paper piecing, and papier mache.

The Guild provides an opportunity for artists working in any fiber related art form to exchange philosophies, share information and seek venues to show their work. Their goal is to connect and inform viewers about the unique and contemporary qualities of fiber art.

The Guild has exhibited their work at the Cummings Gallery, Mercyhurst College; the Schuster Gallery, Gannon University; The Erie Art Museum Frame Shop Gallery; Paper Moon Restaurant; Urraro Gallery; Glass Growers Gallery, Erie, Pa; the Stonewall Gallery, Cambridge Springs, Pa. and the Chautauqua Institute Fall Show, Chautauqua, NY.
