Ahiska Turkish Culture and The Impact of Globalization on Traditional Arts and Crafts

The Impact of Globalization on Traditional Arts and Crafts in Ahiska Turkey: Challenges and Opportunities

Globalization has brought both challenges and opportunities to traditional arts and crafts in Ahiska Turkey.

On one hand, increased access to global markets has allowed artisans to reach a wider audience and increase their sales. 

However, this has also led to the dilution of traditional techniques and designs as artisans strive to meet the demands of the mass market. Additionally, the influx of cheap, mass-produced goods from other countries has posed a threat to the survival of traditional crafts.

 Despite these challenges, there are also opportunities for artisans to collaborate through us with designers and retailers from around the world, as well as to use multiple social media and online platforms to showcase their unique products to a global audience. We have a plan; we have property and now we need you!

Our leaders are working so hard to network around the world and domestically to develop our property in Washington State to offer leverage to make an impact towards change. we are passionate and have the ability to strategize real growth with measurable results. 

Presently there are many efforts to provide community balance and equity. One of the new fundraising programs is introducing incredible artworks and giving a unique approach to exposing to the world our culture in branding products.  workshops with local craftsmen can also contribute to the preservation of Ahiska Turkey's cultural heritage.

Ultimately, by valuing and investing in the work of these artisans, one can play a crucial role in ensuring that these traditional arts and crafts continue to thrive for generations to come.
Our vision to giving a voice to our people will expand to unknown talented partners that may not have the chance to introduce their works to households and business markets throughout.
