Last October 24, 2025, Deaf and PWD participants from Victorias City had the opportunity to learn basic macramé techniques, creating stylish belts and sling bags from scratch. Under the guidance of Venus Segura of Segura Arts and Craft Manufacturing, they have developed new crafting skills that spark creativity, confidence, and livelihood potential.

This FREE and inclusive training was held at Bianca’s Inn, Victorias City, as part of Negros Design Week: Bacolod with the theme “Rooted.”
They have shown that when individuals are given the chance to learn, grow, and express their artistry hands become more skillful, ideas become more inspired, and voices become louder through craft.

More than a workshop, this became a space where abilities were celebrated and creativity became a tool for empowerment. ✨

Congratulations to all participants!
May you continue knotting your way toward new possibilities and opportunities.
