Trustee and Sub Committee Chairman

Our Art and Crafts Subcommittee comprises CFWI Trustees and WI members from across the Federation. We aim to provide a wide range of learning opportunities for members of all skill levels and interests. This includes workshops, exhibitions, online lectures and presentations, and visits to museums and galleries.

Please contact us if you have a WI Craft Group or know of any members with outstanding art and crafts abilities who could be of interest to our Federation members. We are looking for individuals to lead workshops or presentations with our assistance, and we want to showcase our brilliant members. Our email address is [email protected].

Thank you
