Join SEFAA for a fun and fiber-filled weekend at the Southeastern Animal Fiber Fair (SAFF)! We have rented a house for members of the SEFAA community who would like to stay together during the festival. Located just 12 minutes from the SAFF fairgrounds, the house offers a comfortable home base for a weekend of classes, shopping, demonstrations, and fiber-filled fun.
If you're unfamiliar with SAFF, it's one of the premier fiber festivals in the Southeast, featuring nationally recognized instructors, hands-on workshops, fleece and fiber vendors, livestock exhibits, demonstrations, and more. Whether you're interested in spinning, weaving, knitting, crochet, dyeing, felting, basketry, or simply browsing beautiful fiber, there's something for everyone. If you would like to learn more or sign up for a class click here.
This is a wonderful opportunity to connect with fellow fiber enthusiasts, share stories from the fair, and enjoy a cozy community atmosphere after a day of classes and inspiration.

Need more inspiration to visit Asheville?. Asheville is a treasure trove of things to see and do. Visit the Biltmore House one afternoon, or take a visit to the Asheville Art District and visit Local Cloth(a local fiber art organization like SEFFA). A trip to the Southern Highland Craft Build Folk Art Center is worth the drive.
Space is limited and will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.
