Our guest speakers and workshops are now a mixture of in person or via Zoom.

• Visiting speaker programs are the second Saturday of the month at our Guild general meetings.  They run from 1:30 pm – 4:00 pm, with the exception of December, which runs from 10 am – noon.
• A majority of our meetings are conducted as hybrid, meaning you can attend in person at Pleasanton Middle School (PMS) or via Zoom.  Visit the guest speaker page to determine if the speaker will be attending live at PMS or presenting remotely.
• Workshops are either in person at the Bothwell Art Center in Livermore or via Zoom on the Sunday that follows the general meeting and run from 10am – 4pm.
• Our December meeting is typically held at Phoebe Hearst Elementary School and will not be available for attendance via Zoom.

Workshop registration and location information can be found on the Workshop Registration page.
