About the Workshop: Al Jasra Handicrafts Center is organizing a Weaving Workshop, Fabric weaving is one of the ancient traditional crafts with deep roots in the history of the Kingdom of Bahrain as it has been known to man and passed on from generation to generation. It has managed to meet most of the population needs of clothes and other requirements where fabric threads are used. The textile industry was wide spread in certain villages, such as Abu Saybi, Dar Kulayb and Makabah. Thereafter, the industry was restricted to Bani Jamrah village, which in the past hosted close to a hundred factories that employed almost all residents of the village. These factories were nothing but modest huts of palm fronds where the weaver and his family members would seek refuge from the heat of the sun. Their village was a bustling market, which people frequented to buy their requirements, and their fabrics were exported to the various Gulf regions. Workshop details:
