Workshops are offered several times each year. MPQG’s goal is to offer members unique opportunities to learn new techniques and improve their quilting skills with some of the top local and international quilt teachers. Space is limited (generally 15-20 participants) and workshop attendance is on a first-come, first-served basis. Workshop prices vary by instructor and reflect the actual costs. 

Registration

• Registration for specific workshops will open at the Guild general meeting approximately three (3) months prior to the class. Following the general meeting, on-line or mail registration is available. Members (including Board members) may not sign up for workshops until all members have received an announcement of the workshop.

• Payment in full is due at the time of registration.

• MPQG membership must be current at the time of registration. Non-members will be placed on a waiting list.

• Members of MPQG have registration priority. Non-members will be taken from the waiting list if there are no members on the waiting list.

• Workshop fees will be higher for non-members.

Cancellations and Refunds

• Full refunds will be provided for all workshops cancelled by the Guild.

• Should a participant need to cancel, full refunds will be made if the workshop organizer is able to find another individual on the waitlist to take the place of the original participant. The workshop organizer will fill open spots from the WAITLIST. 

• If a registered individual cancels and there are no entries on a waiting list, the registered individual has the option to find a replacement and request reimbursement from the replacement. The workshop organizer must be notified in advance of all changes.

• No-shows will forfeit the workshop fee in its entirety.

• If a member believes that a cancellation was caused due to special circumstances that warrants a refund, they may bring the matter to the Board’s attention and request a refund.
