Opening night ceremonies: Jean Pierre Larochette welcomes the weavers from Oaxaca and introductions are made
Opening night at the Peter Gray Museo was well attended for the exhibition of tapestries woven by weavers from Teotitlan del Valle, Oaxaca, Mexico. I have posted some photos of the work of these fine weavers. This is the first attempts they are making to weave for the wall rather than the floor. They had a very appreciate audience.
