CALLING ALL ARTISTS!
Surface design is the complex embellishment and transformation of materials including fibers, paper, clay, glass and metal.
The purpose of the Florida Gulf Coast Surface Design Guild is to increase community awareness of surface design and to offer educational, exhibition and sale venues for our members.
FGCSDG is open to anyone with an interest in surface design of any variety.

Short History
The first organizational meeting of the Florida Gulf Coast Surface Design Guild was held on Feb. 24, 2000 at the Selby Library in Sarasota, Florida, under the leadership of Louise Hall, who became our first president. Fourteen enthusiastic people were present.
After discussing what surface design encompassed and what it takes to set up an organization, Louise set the tone for future meetings by demonstrating her use of machine sewing on soda cans. We were all inspired to try new things. Subsequent meetings continue to have member-led presentations on individual's specialties, which is stimulating for us all.
Our first formal election of officers took place on February 25, 2003. Emily Dunham-Smith succeeded Pat Fox as president. Nancy David was elected president in February, 2004. Lois Mills served as president from 2005-07, and our current president is Kendra Drobnak.
For 2008-09, our entire previous Board was reelected. See photo below.
