Mayan Weaving is an ancient art, celebrated for thousands of years and enjoyed by countless people. This art is being threatened though, We need to support weavers more than ever before now to help preserve this sacred craft.
This art is being threatened due to industrialization, fast fashion, and cultural appropriation of Mayan Patterns by companies like H&M, Shien, and other fast fashion platforms. Mayan weavers need more resources to train the future generations or the art will die out.
With a sponsorship and fundraising, we can help Mayan weavers buy equipement, supplies and materials, and gain access to spaces to teach and pass on their skills, as well as make a better living and live with more dignity and prosperity.
