Historia
Kingston Handloom Weavers and Spinners was formed in 1948 to promote the teaching of weaving, spinning and other related crafts in both their historic, contemporary and technical contexts. Initially, members met in each other's houses. Over the years the organization grew, utilizing various studio spaces in town, including, at one point, the attic of City Hall. In 1973 the Guild moved to the newly-purchased, City-owned J.K.Tett Centre, occupying a substantial studio space. The Portsmouth Town Hall became KHWS's interim home in 2009 as a complete renovation, restoration and rejuvenation of "The Tett" was about to begin. KHWS returned to the Tett upon completion of renovations. KHWS is the largest guild of its kind in eastern Ontario, drawing its membership, of over 80 member, from a radius of about 100 Km. It is now incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario as a non-profit corporation.
