To accompany our new
Empowering Women: Artisan Cooperatives that Transform Communities exhibit, the Burke Museum created a special display featuring local entrepreneurs, organizations, and committed global citizens who are supporting artisans and transforming communities around the world.
From Wallingford to Mongolia, from the Skagit Valley to the Valley of Oaxaca, each of these efforts uses traditional arts and crafts to address contemporary social issues.
Here's a peek at the stories behind the Burke’s Northwest Connections display.
