I am excited to share with you the news that a potential collaborator in Chiapas contacted Synergo Arts late last year. We are in the very early stages of sorting out the possibilities for how we may be able to work together to enable the local people to implement the bench project in Mexico. One of the early steps is likely to be meeting on-site with that organization, weavers, and carpenters from the community. I'll look forward to keeping you informed as this possibility evolves.
Thank you for your patience during the long trajectory of getting this project moving in Mexico. To read about the kind of success we are working toward in Mexico, please visit this link to the January update from the bench project in Guatemala: http://www.globalgiving.org/projects/artisan-backstrap-weaving-women-health-culture/updates/ .
Happy new year!
