Open Board Positions - President and Vice President
We are still looking for a new President and VP. Kasteyl will be staying on until the new year and the Guild cannot continue our 40 year history without a replacement. Since 2022 we have had two of our three local knitters guilds dissolve, Seattle Knitters Guild has absorbed a number of those members. When Kasteyl took her position, we were comfortably just below 100 members. As of today we have over 200. We have the largest and most diverse membership we've ever had and our community cannot lose our last remaining guild. If you're nervous about stepping into the role, don't be. We have an experienced Board and Kasteyl will be staying on as Secretary to help facilitate the handover and transition. She'll be there to support you every step of the way. She'll train you on how to use our agenda templates, how to support the existing roles, and how to lead the meetings! This position requires you to attend one additional meeting per month. With all of the duties you can expect to spend 4-10 hours a month volunteering, including the general meeting. Got a friend you'd like to rope in to support you (like Emilia and Cami our programs team)? Take on President and VP together! If you're interested we'd love to hear from you. Additional information about the Board roles is available on the website - including a direct link to the by-laws. If you're interested in joining us, please reach out to Kasteyl via email. 
2025 Membership is now open! Check out the membership page for details, or click on the button below to be directed to Square to pay online. (Please allow 7-14 days for your membership to be updated in order to access the Members section/Zoom link. Check payments will take longer to process.) |
