Fair Trade Rugs are Coming to Mechanicsburg! Ten Thousand Villages hosts 2nd Annual Rug Event April 3-6
The always popular Fair Trade Oriental Rug Event comes to the Mechanicsburg Ten Thousand Villages store on April 3-6. For 4 days only, more than 300 high quality hand-knotted Bunyaad rugs will be on display and available for purchase at this unique annual event.
From intricate florals to hand-spun natural dye wool tribals, every Bunyaad rug has been designed and hand-knotted by highly skilled and fairly paid adults.
"When artisans know they are paid for every knot they tie, they are empowered to focus on the fine details of intricate rugs that will last for generations,” says Yousaf Chaman, Bunyaad Director. Bunyaad works with over 850 families throughout 100 villages in Pakistan.
An Introduction to Oriental Rugs seminar will be held at the Mechanicsburg store on Thursday, April 4 at 6:30 p.m. The one-hour seminar is ideal for anyone considering an Oriental rug purchase or who would like to learn more about the art of Oriental rug making, rug care and even room design. Refreshments will be served and admission is free. Reservations are strongly encouraged.
