The Royal Alpaca Challenge Party
Join us on the Mezzanine in the arena for the Royal Alpaca Challenge Party Saturday evening. Free to all Exhibitors and Vendors. Entertainment, cash bar and a great way to network, meet new breeders and share stories about our beloved alpacas.
The Royal Knitting Lounge & educational fiber display
Comfy chairs invite you to “Sit & knit” for awhile. Share ideas and spin a yarn or two. Fiber arts demonstrations will be offered throughout the show in the Carriage Room. All local Atlanta and surrounding knitting and fiber arts guilds will be personally invited. A fiber education display will help newcomers to the world of alpacas better understand the fabulous characteristics of alpaca fiber that make camelid products superior to all others. We will take the visitors through the steps of processing fiber from shearing into a end product.
