We are a group of professional ethnographers, anthropologists, linguists, researchers, writers, filmmakers, curators, attorneys, businesspeople, and tourist coodinators working in the Andes of South America with the goal of improving the economic and cultural conditions of Native Americans. In March, 2003 we began the epic project of documenting the indigenous Bolivian textile tradition including its history, technology and social and spiritual significance. Since the Andean textile tradition is known as the greatest achievement in the history of South American indigenous culture, we believe that its exposure to the world will bring a new level of respect and understanding to the indigenous people of South America. Our funding comes from donations, arts and crafts sales, and guest participation. Please feel free to contact us for more information on how you can play a part in this exciting activity.

En marzo de 2003 hemos empezado el proyecto fundamental de documentar la tradicion de la tejeduria de Bolivia incluyendo su historia, tecnologia, significado social y espiritual. Porque la tradicion andina es conocida como el logro mas grande en la historia de las culturas indigenas de Sur America, creemos que su revelacion al mundo se llevara a un nuevo nivel de respeto y conocimiento para la gente indigena de Sud America. Nuestro financiamiento viene de ventas de artesanias, donaciones y la participacion de huespedes.
