August Meeting: Annual General Meeting & Buy, Swap and Sell

📅 Tuesday 25th August 2026
⏰ 7pm to 9pm
📍Rear Hall, St. Faith's Church, 8 Charles St., Glen Iris

Join us in August for our Annual General Meeting (AGM) followed by our annual bookbinding materials and equipment buy, swap and sell. With the upcoming move out of St Faith's premises, we'll be clearing out surplus bookbinding equipment, tools, materials and supplies. Meaning there will be more items and equipment up for sale to help us reduce what needs to be moved. Feel free to bring any items in you wish to swap or sell.

Only current financial members of the Victorian Bookbinders’ Guild are eligible to vote at the AGM. If you have not yet renewed your membership for the 2026–27 membership year, please see the renewal details below. Our Secretary, Robert, will send the official Notice of Meeting and AGM documentation to members via email prior to the meeting.
