About Us

Fiber Artists of Northern Arizona (FANA) are weavers, spinners, dyers, knitters, wool growers, crocheters, basket-makers, felters, and other textile technique enthusiasts who gather together to encourage growth in fiber media by educating, supporting, and inspiring the fiber arts community in Northern Arizona. All fiber media are welcome.

Fiber education is a large part of our mission, both out in the community and for our membership. We have a lovely tradition of helping each other learn new techniques. There are experts at various techniques in the group, but beginners are welcomed and nurtured. Most of us are learning new media and techniques from each other or from our program presenters, so we’re all beginners at something. Enthusiasm is as important as experience in this group.
