Thursday, July 12 we attended the Santa Fe Folk Art Festival Community Celebration. Thousands gather to celebrate the artists. It’s free and open to the public. This short iPhone movie gives you a glimpse of the artists in their traditional dress. You’ll have to look carefully because there are some beautiful textiles! And even lovelier faces. Organized by continent Asia leads the procession.
Below is a montage of ClothRoads’ Artisans. It’s such an honor to be able to meet the makers behind some of the products at ClothRoads. Enjoy! We sure did.
We invites you to view the work of Ock Pop Tok, and the Cusco Center for Traditional Textiles and Wajxa ib Kan at ClothRoads.com.
