Volunteer at International Quilt Festival - Houston
Volunteering in the SAQA booth at shows and expos rewards both the volunteer and the organization. It is a way to meet fellow members, bond, network, represent this terrific organization of art quilters, and meet attendees who inquire about membership and the exhibits. Join the fun!
If you are attending the 2023 International Quilt Show in Houston, please consider helping at the SAQA booth. A sign-up link will be posted in September. We hope to see you there!
