This exhibit will explore the vital traditions and transformations of weaving, spinning and dyeing in the Peruvian Highland villages. Textile traditions and current weaving culture of the nine communities associated with The Center for Traditional Textiles in Cusco (CTTC), Peru will be the focus of this exhibition.

Any number of these exquisite naturally-dyed handwoven ponchos, shawls, table runners and mats, pillow covers, belts, braids, bags and pouches, dolls, handspun yarns and handknitted hats could be yours. All items are uniquly made from the members of the weaving villages of the Center for Traditional Textiles in Cusco, Peru. Your purchase helps maintain a culture of weaving and supports more than 350 weavers and 250 children in nine regions.
