Featured Artisan
Mubina, 26, lives with her parents and five siblings. Before they discovered ARZU, they lacked money for daily necessities. These conditions began to change when Keramat and her mother joined ARZU’s program in 2004. “ARZU gives us bonus money and we buy wheat, rice, clothes and stationary for my sisters, who didn’t like to go to school in the past. Now they are attending the courses eagerly, as well as my brothers.”

I love the Turkman rugs the most. And of that collection Understanding is my favorite. The intense colors and patterns are so singular to the Afghan people, their country and their traditions.
