Guilds are holding board meetings, general membership meetings, classes and informal small-group meetings via Zoom.
Guild members love three things the most:
- The get to see and talk to each other again!
- They can see all demos up close when the demo is on screen.
- They have their whole stash to work from and don’t have to carry anything anywhere or worry about driving or parking!
