The Weavers of Greece is a project of Branding Heritage Cultural organisation (www.brandingheritage.org) which promotes the textile #heritage of Greece through a #database of #textile #artisans and their connection with Greek and foreign designers.

The results of the project (the presentations of the weavers, accompanied by photographic and video material, and contact details) are accessible online here: https://brandingheritage.org/

The project highlights the #weaving #art and strengthens the perspective of the development of the weaver's profession with an emphasis on the #sustainability of the art in a modern economic, social and cultural environment.

In addition, the project aims at the extroversion and highlighting of the country's #cultural wealth, the collaboration of #tradition with #modern business, the interconnection with networks in Greece and abroad, the highlighting of the interculturality of weaving as well as the professions connected to art, the products, customs and practices.

In addition to recording ( database of #craft ), highlighting their precious #handicrafts, the #patterns and #materials they use, an important aim of the project is to connect artisans with modern brands for the exchange of know-how and the development of synergies.

The starting point of the project was #crete as the art of weaving has an uninterrupted presence on the island.
2nd station is #Peloponnese Messinia (Kalamata - Ripessi)
