Who Are We?
We are men and women who live or work in the NW valley of the sun (i.e. Phoenix AZ). Some of us are experienced artists and other are just beginning to work with gourds. We meet to share our trials & triumphs with gourds. Together we learn new tips and techniques for creating gourd art. At most meetings we have demonstrations on techniques such as carving, weaving, couching, wood burning, inlaying beads or other materials, etc..
No matter what's on the schedule, we don't take ourselves too seriously. We always have FUN at our meeting! If you think you might enjoy working with gourds, please come to one of our meetings. You do not have to be a member to check us out.
