50th Anniversary Celebration (1974-2024)

The 50th Anniversary celebration activities and events started in January with the monthly Golden Moments and the release of the 50th Anniversary Sampler (designed by Stephanie B who also designed a special name tag for members to stitch).

In March, there was a tour of a selection of the textile collection at the Royal Alberta Museum. The 50th Anniversary Committee also organized a special potluck gathering in June.

The Edmonton Needlecraft Guild's held a 50th Anniversary Retreat on September 29, 2024. The Retreat was held at the Woodvale Community Facility, 4540 - 50th Street, Edmonton (Golf Course Clubhouse) from 9:30 am to 9:00 pm. A day of stitching and sharing memories was enjoyed by all who attended.

Registration included lunch, cake in the afternoon, and dinner.
