Happy Diwali from Mela Artisans!

On behalf of all of us at Mela Artisans, we wish you a joyous Diwali, or Festival of Lights. Celebrated this year on Sunday, October 27th throughout India and parts of South Asia, Diwali recognizes the triumph of good over evil and the blessings of success, liberty and insight. On this special night, dozens of candles and lamps are lit throughout homes and roadways to light up the night.

Mela Artisans aims to meaningfully impact our artisans throughout India by bringing their handmade products to the global market. With a philosophy based in empowerment and mutual respect rather than charity, our fair trade practices provide a more stable income, improved livelihoods and enhanced well-being for entire communities.

Collectively, these groups employ 4,500 permanent artisans, of which 77% are women and more than 6,000 part-time artisans, 29% women. We are proud to have generated enough direct income for artisans to support 1000 individuals working full-time for twelve months.
