Fundraise for the Creativity or Hearing programs
The profits from Artesania Sorata are used to fund these two projects that help disadvantaged children. Both rely on
volunteers and fundraising for their existence. We use the funding for the projects
to employ a family therapist at the childrenīs home as well a social worker and signing interpreter in the hearing program.
We also provide donated hearing aids and transport to the special needs school for deaf children . These projects are funded by kind hearted individuals around the
world as well as Artesania Sorata itself. We welcome contributions and fundraising intiatives are always wonderful
to be involved in. We also welcome any possibilities for mutual development with related schools or programs around the world.

Visiting Artist Program
We welcome artists with experience or interest in working in textile arts. Our invitation extends to
spending time in Sorata and La Paz with our textile artists, both learning and teaching. We hope that this collaboration
will enrich the artistic understandings of both parties and enable our artisans to continue to develop artistically.
This program usually works best on a time scale of two to five months and can easily be combined with our creativity program.
For more information please contact Diane Bellomy at cnsorata@yahoo.com. If you would like to view a video of a visit to our workshop, view this clip from one of our tours.
