Programs & Workshops
CCQG offers a variety or programs and workshops throughout the year. At our meetings, we have speakers teach us new skills, how to use new tools and technology, and provide inspiration for that next great project. Our speakers are nationally renowned, local and even part of our own guild.
Our workshops usually run from 9:30 - 4:00 but hours vary (setup begins 30 minutes before the workshop starts). Locations can vary depending on the workshop.
Check out the Program/Workshop list to the right to see what interests you. If you have trouble signing up for a workshop online, please contact the guild at ccqg2012@gmail.com
