About the Artist:
Ten Thousand Villages was founded in Akron, Pennsylvania by Edna Ruth Byler. After traveling the world, Byler understood many local artisans and artists did not have access to any marketplace to sell their wares and goods. What started as one woman selling textiles from the trunk of her car and telling the stories of the artisans who made them, grew into lasting partnerships and ignited the global fair trade movement. Every sale and every donation helps correct economic injustice and empower entrepreneurs.
