Can't find a chapter near you?

If there is not a local SAGA chapter in your area, the SAGA board would like to encourage you to consider establishing a new chapter. An informational packet on how to start a new SAGA chapter is available by contacting the Chapter Coordinator at chapter@smocking.org. This packet will be sent to you via your email address. It only takes 3 people interested in smocking, needlework, and/or heirloom sewing to start a chapter. All members of a local chapter must belong to the national Smocking Arts Guild of America (according to SAGA bylaws).
SAGA is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.

For more information, please contact: chapter@smocking.org.
