December 2018
The NEN Nagaland team worked tirelessly during December to bring the weavers of Chizami into the well deserved limelight. Chizami Weaves participated in the annual Hornbill Festival from Dec 1st-10th, 2018 at Kisama, Kohima. The products such as Cushion Covers, Table Runners, Shawls etc were put up for sale at the festival and were an instant hit! Traditional cotton weaving, spinning and grass- rain cloak making were demonstrated at the festival by the skilled weavers as well.
Ms. Kekhrope-u Mekrisuh and Lhimewe-u Thopi represented the Chizami Weaves team at The Silk and Dye Festival, Kaziranga from 1st -9th Dec 2018. A stall was put up here as well to much success. The Silk n Dye festival, was organized by Janambhumi Janakalyan in association with YCSD and Earth Craft.
