We have very good news to share with you! During July, we will finish the first stage of our handicraft workshops. Since we started with the activities, in March, we conducted 25 workshops for 44 women entrepreneurs from Villa Ojo de Agua (Santiago del Estero, Argentina).
Throughout these 5 months, women learned and improved their crochet knitting under the amigurumis technique (making dolls, rattles, blankets, souvenirs and badges), and also worked on creative projects of decorative, mixed techniques, using products on all surfaces, incorporating color theory and new trendy materials.
After the winter vacations, we will resume activities in August. In addition, we will invite new women from the community to join the handicraft workshops.
And the best is yet to come! In September we will start training in entrepreneurship management (online sales and digital marketing).
We are very excited about this Project! Our team has worked very hard to offer the best activities for the women of Villa Ojo de Agua. Therefore, we hope to continue counting on your support! Thank you for joining us!
