Weave A Real Peace will present a Zoom Panel on USA- based groups on Saturday April 17th from 1:00-2:00, EST.  The panel will include three WARP members as presenters with experience in service organizations that include textiles.

Elroy Natachu Jr. represents Ancestral Rich Treasures of Zuni ARTZ that is a juried artist owned and run cooperative featuring a variety of Native American art forms.  Sara Borchert has worked for years with different Camphill communities -- a worldwide network where people with and without intellectual disabilities grow, learn, and achieve together.  Sharon Gordon Donnan is with Acadiana Fibershed of southwestern Louisiana, which encourages the growing of heirloom brown cotton to support a local sustainable fashion industry.

The panel will be moderated by WARP member Judi Jetson, who has significant experience in promoting crafts, particularly textiles.  There will be ample opportunity for questions from those attending this panel.
