There are advantages to belonging to a guild. One is that the one I belong to has an educational/informational program at each meeting (maybe they all do this). The last one was on paper piecing and now I can't wait to give it a try. And the show and tell is usually very good - it gives a person inspiration.
I'd say try it out a few times and if it's hard for you to meet new people (like me) look for someone sitting by themselves and join them. Most are friendly but some are a bit cliquish - getting a bit involved would also help a person to get to know others.
