The Guatemalan Peace banner is hand woven by the artisans of Agua Caliente, a rural village near San Juan Comalapa. The group consists of 9 women who are very skilled weavers and excel at making crafts on treadle foot looms. The artisans of Agua Caliente are very creative and have come up with many of their own unique designs! The artisans are proud to be able to weave this message of peace and are so thankful for their many customers. By working fair trade they have often seen this message of peace in their own lives as they are able to better support their families and bring economic development to their community.
