87: Indigenous Fiber and Craft Making in Cusco Peru with Aula Artesana

Weave - A podcast by Gist Yarn

Categories:

This week on the podcast I am speaking with Sonya and Steph of Aula Artesana, a retail and learning space located in the heart of Cusco, Peru. Sonya and Steph collaborate with Indigenous artisans, communities, organizations, and businesses in the highlands and jungles of Peru in order to build a unique, curated collection of handmade products. They offer group and custom hands-on workshops with master artisans in hopes to facilitate opportunities for people of different backgrounds to come together to exchange experiences and learn about alternative perspectives through art and travel. They currently have an active Kick Starter Campaign to support their project ending on November 17th so I encourage those interested to support! Show notes: www.gistyarn.com/episode-87
