Congratulations! It's hard to get everything together to even apply these days. Did you have to use the ZAP (could be wrong about the letters) process to apply. I have a weaver friend who is finding it a hard transition. marilyn » reply  Marilyn, the jury process is

Marilyn, the jury process is in three parts. Juries are held three times a year. First get a application and send it in with several slides, yes, slides :-(, of your work. Next they have a jury of the slides. If you pass that, then you submit several pieces of your work for the final jury. In my case, I didn't score high enough the first time to place my work in the gallery, but did get in half way. Which meant I was able to take part in the studio tour. Which was great, it was one of the main reason for wanting to get in. I did the resubmit and this time passed :-) You're allowed one year to resubmit new work or you have to start again. I've never heard of ZAP » reply |

Congratulations
Entry into these groups is good because they provide networking and some retailers are interested in Guild members in their shops. Many of these groups have newsletters and I encourage you to promote youself.
Best of luck,
Fred
