Lao textile and craft workshops — weaving, dyeing, embroidery

Three-hour weaving days, indigo afternoons, Hmong embroidery sessions. With the artisans who keep the patterns alive.

Textile and craft workshops

Lao weaving — particularly Tai Dam and Hmong — is one of Southeast Asia’s great craft traditions. A three-hour session puts you at the loom and gets you a scarf you actually made.

Not souvenirs. The actual craft.
