About Program
This course has a theoretical-practical nature. In this course you will learn about Peruvian prehispanic textiles and a technique turned into a work of art that made it possible for ancient weavers to reflect, with great experience, their life and the environment in their textiles.
This process is enriched with a variety of colors, dyeing and weaving techniques, different applications and the use of the best fibers from animals.
