Women’s Empowerment Neighborhood at IFAM 2025
Where Art Becomes Agency
At the International Folk Art Market, we know that when you invest in women, you invest in communities. That belief comes alive in the Women’s Empowerment Neighborhood—a powerful space dedicated to celebrating female artists who use their craft to uplift others, preserve tradition, and lead change.
A Marketplace of Strength and Story
Booths # 106–142 represent a collective of women who are not only skilled artisans but also visionaries and advocates. Their work speaks of resilience, creativity, and transformation. From handwoven textiles and embroidered clothing to jewelry, ceramics, and basketry, each piece carries a story—of matriarchal knowledge passed down, of community strengthened, and of beauty born from challenge.
This neighborhood is more than a section of the Market—it’s a movement. A celebration. A living testament to what happens when women are given the tools, the platform, and the respect to thrive.

Why This Neighborhood Matters
For many of these artists, creating and selling their art is a lifeline. It funds education, supports families, and empowers future generations. Their roles often extend beyond the workshop; they are mentors, cooperative leaders, and entrepreneurs working for economic freedom and social justice.
When you support these artists, you’re part of something bigger: you’re helping expand women’s access to opportunity, amplifying their voices, and ensuring that cultural traditions rooted in women’s hands continue to flourish.
