Supporting artisans in Myanmar and Thailand

Solidarity Can Change the World

We work with community-minded artisans to sell goods and support grassroots projects and mutual aid efforts in Myanmar and Thailand.

Creating a new economy

Our collective is filled with people who want to build a better future. We sell their goods in order to support their livelihoods as they work for social change in their communities.

Prioritizing Women

Women are the frontline fighters for social change, and are too often excluded from decisions that impact them most. The majority of the artists in our collective are women-led initiatives.

Shared Stories, Shared Struggles

Our collective members are from Myanmar and Thailand. We seek to bring different communities together through art and goods.
