The The Rocky Mountain Region of the Embroiderers’ Guild of America (EGA) will hold its 2027 Region In-Person Event at the Riverside Hotel in Boise Idaho on May 13-16, 2027. The dates seem far away, but it will be here before we know it, SO put these dates on your calendar!!!
The Riverside hotel is nestled next to the Boise River within walking distance of restaurants and other amenities. Boise is the capital of Idaho, a vibrant city with lots to do and see and yet, it keeps that small town feel, with museums, galleries, and walking paths. Idaho, the Gem state, has a rich history of gem and silver mining, thus we named our weekend, “GEM OF A WEEKEND.”
Not only will “GEM OF A WEEKEND” have a variety of classes for our fun filled weekend of learning and exploring “gems’ in embroidery we will have lectures and tours. Participants are sure to find activities that will tap into any interest and skill level. Activities will include a meet and greet to visit old friends and make new ones, enjoy an open stitching room, bid on silent auction items, view a prospector’s exhibit, shop merchandise night, and experience other surprises!
Keep your eyes open for more information to follow!
