Our mission is to foster positive transformation through the dissemination of researched knowledge, meaningful design interventions, and curatorial exhibitions.
Your support enables us to research, document, and archive weaving cultures, connect weavers and artisans with designers and scholars to upgrade skills, and curate exhibitions that celebrate this vibrant heritage.
By joining hands with us, you help preserve textile traditions, enhance livelihoods, and build a sustainable ecosystem for current and future generations.
Together, we can keep these traditions alive and impactful. Entire proceeds from your unit/bulk purchases of our publications go towards the administrative costs at the Foundation and keep us self–sustained.
