81 Designs, in collaboration with artists from the MENA Region, is as a vehicle that brings both art and humanity together by showcasing the talents of the refugee women artisans. By providing employment opportunities , the platform provides hope in building a brighter future through preserving and modernizing the ancient embroidery technique Tatreez. Currently the social enterprise employs 20 refugee artisans and our goal is to see that number grow.
ART X HUMANITY
MISSION
Our mission is to help displaced refugee women artisans earn a stable income by finding a renewed sense of purpose in life.
By creating a platform for Artists from the MENA region, we also have created a CSR program that helps contribute to this mission by recreating and re-interpreting their original artwork in the “tatreez” medium.
