Colorful trogons and pelicans are on the way

James Plowden

One of the very talented workshop participants was 24-year old Bora native artisan Morelia who is a mother and leader in her community that hosted the training.  She said, "This workshop was an incredible opportunity for me to learn and improve.  While I am still learning, I feel motivated to innovate and keep working with this art, as it helps us economically.  I want to encourage others to continue learning and perfecting their skills.  That's why I enjoy attending these kinds of workshops."
