Diversity Statement

Contemporary Handweavers of Houston is an open, welcoming, and inclusive organization where anyone interested in the fiber arts can find a home.

We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, age, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, nationality, disability, religion, or any other personal trait, characteristic, or attribute, whether or not protected by the law.

Everyone who walks through our doors is welcome and encouraged to participate fully. You don’t have to be a maker to find a home with CHH. Our members include collectors and admirers of fiber arts, as well as craftspeople — from complete beginners to advanced weavers, spinners, and fiber artists. If you love the fiber arts, you belong with CHH.

Our goal is to create a rich and rewarding environment, where fiber enthusiasts from all walks of life can learn, grow, and form strong friendships. If you’re worried you won’t fit in, we assure you that you will!
