The Start! We are in the early stages of creating a film of our Navajo weavers and the Navajo Nation!
With the support of our non-profit Forever Navajo, we are in the early stages of a video that will highlight our weavers, the weaving process and the beauty of the Navajo Nation! We are excited to start the project!
The project is to preserve and advance the fine art of Navajo weaving. We envision this will open the Navajo Nation to the world with the ultimate goal of elevating Navajo weaving to the true art form that it deserves.
Here are a few location photos. Stay tuned!
