The National Association of Wheat Weavers

Name:  The National Association of Wheat Weavers is a thriving membership that includes all skill levels from beginners, to craftspeople, to advanced straw artists.

Location: Members live all over the United States and around the world.    

History: In the 1970s, a group of women from Kansas traveled to Eye Manor in Herefordshire, England, where Lettice Sandford conducted a summer school on straw art. It was there the women of Kansas gained expertise and revived the craft in America, which was instrumental in the founding of NAWW in 1987.
