This is the Web home of the Northern Lights Costumers' Guild, or NoeL for short. NoeL is a Chapter of the International Costumers' Guild, a non-profit organization which seeks to educate the public and enjoy the construction and wearing of all forms of costume.
NoeL is composed of costumers, teachers, artists, engineers, and other interested people who share the love of costuming. Our members are scattered over the greater New England area. Go to our about page for more info on us!
We hold meetings typically on the second Sunday of every month. More information on meetings is available here.
