Start with the 5 verified guilds listed on this page — each entry links to the guild's own website, where you'll find meeting times and contact information. You can also ask at your local quilt shop; most shops know every active guild in their area.
Most local guild dues run $20–50 per year, which typically covers monthly meetings, the guild newsletter, and access to the guild library. Workshops with visiting teachers are usually a paid extra ($30–150 for a full-day class).
The Modern Quilt Guild has chapters in most states, and many general guilds also have modern-quilting interest groups. Check the guild websites listed here, or search the Modern Quilt Guild's chapter directory for current Hawaii chapters.
