Threads of Heritage: Weaving Philippine Arts and Crafts Workshop

Details of the Workshop:

 Al Jasra Handicrafts Center is organising a workshop titled Threads of Heritage: Weaving Philippine Arts and Crafts.  The Tagolwanen Women Weavers Association, Inc. (TWWA) is dedicated to reviving the fading weaving tradition of the Tagolwanen tribe in Bukidnon, Philippines, and ensuring that the mat-making craft is passed down to future generations. The association envisions promoting indigenous arts to help the Tagolwanen women weavers achieve economic independence.

 The workshop conducted by the Tagolwanen women weavers will introduce the traditional weaving practice of the Tagolwanen tribe, including their intricate designs and traditional methods of preparing the materials used and the weaving process.
