The latest Guild in eastern Europe to be affiliated to the Association was formed in March 2006. It is the Vilkija Guild of Spinners, Weavers and Knitters and is based at the Vilkija National Vocational FolkArt College, a unique educational establishment with a reputation and influence which far outweigh its size. In the centuries-old, gracious wooden house, set on a hillside in a pretty village overlooking Lithuania's great Nemunas river, the inaugural day was thoroughly memorable. It was the culmination of ten days of activity when the College became the focus of a spinning revival.
