Community Arts And Crafts Foundation

We run things from House No 1/59-B Grand Marod. It’s not a big fancy office, just a place where we get together to handle the Community Arts And Crafts Foundation. Most days you'll find a few of us here sorting through supplies or planning the next local project. We started this because there wasn't much going on for people who like making things with their hands. It gets busy, especially when we have a new batch of crafts coming in. Sometimes the desk is a mess with papers and samples, but that’s just how it goes when you’re actually doing the work. People stop by the house often to ask about what we’re up to or to show us something they made. We try to keep things simple. If you're walking around Grand Marod, you’ve probably seen our sign outside. It’s just us trying to keep these old traditions alive in our own way. We don't have a big team or anything, just a couple of folks who care about art and want to see more of it in the neighborhood. Lately, we've been looking at some new weaving techniques that some of the older folks showed us. It's funny how much you can learn just by sitting down and talking to someone for an hour. We don’t really do fancy meetings or anything like that. We just sit around, drink some tea, and figure out what needs to get done for the day. It works for us and seems to help the community too.
