Emerging W**emakers Competition & Symposium
We are pleased to welcome back the Emerging W**emakers Competition & Symposium at Yavapai College.
The 2026 Emerging W**emakers Competition & Symposium will be held on Saturday, April 18, 2026.
For those who have not yet attended, this exceptional event features educational seminars, an awards ceremony, and an engaging roundtable discussion with speakers, judges, and competitors.
Guests attending in person will also enjoy lunch accompanied by a glass of student-crafted w**e from the Southwest W**e Center at Yavapai College.
W**es submitted by emerging w**emakers are evaluated by a panel of independent w**e industry professionals. Each entrant receives written, confidential feedback on their submitted w**e(s) — a valuable opportunity to gain constructive, unbiased insight from experienced judges.
The deadline for w**e entry submissions is April 7, 2026.
We look forward to seeing you there.
