A local cooperative supporting Indigenous women weavers
Trama Textiles aims to empower Indigenous women in the highlands and preserve the art of traditional weaving by uniting weavers from across the region, providing fair work and helping build economic independence.
As a completely worker-owned cooperative, any way you choose to be involved with Trama helps support their mission. By purchasing products, taking a class, or just stopping by to learn the story, you can help this project support the incredible traditions of Mayan textiles.
What to Expect:
Go by the Trama Textiles shop in the heart of Xela! Open every day except Sunday, you can take short workshops, browse all the handmade products, or inquire about volunteering opportunities.
