Colorado Weavers Day 2026 will be held, Saturday May 2, 2026 at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs, hosted by Pikes Peak Weavers Guild.  Keynote Speakers will be Virginia Postrel and Emily Trujillo. In addition, more focused presentations will include spinning with Peggy Doney;  natural dyeing with Jan Seltman, Linda Lugenbill, and Judi Arndt; and little looms with Deb Bagley, Diane Gromowski, and Robin Sutherland.

Virginia Postrel will be speaking on her latest book, “The Fabric of Civilization: How Textiles Made the World. Since the first thread was spun, the development of textiles has driven technology, business, politics, and culture. Virginia will share with us how the story of  textiles is also the story of humanity. 

Emily Trujillo is an award-winning eighth generation Rio Grande weaver from Chimayo, New Mexico.  Emily blends her love for music, media, and her modern experiences into one-of-a-kind pieces to express who she is in contemporary woven designs. Having spent her entire life watching and learning from generations of weavers before her, she is focused on efforts to sustain her family’s 400-year-old weaving tradition.
