Kinavatjesan Cross-Stitch - Paiwan Tribe Maiden Garment Making

Many Paiwan tribe members strive for a living in Taoyuan, yet their hearts are always tied to their homeland. Our greatest hope is to let children growing up in the city still stand tall and feel the pride of being indigenous in their blood. Through traditional cross-stitch courses, we want to personally sew that set of ethnic attire that can be worn to weddings, ceremonies, and all important occasions. This is not just a craft class; it is a cultural action taking root in a foreign land. We want to prove that culture should not be a commodity priced on a shelf but a life memory passed down through generations via the warmth of each stitch by tribal members.
