My Trove Jewels
Jewellery-making in Nepal
Maya Universe Academy & community workshops
Our founder Kiara shared jewellery-making with children and village women in rural Nepal, building on her longer relationship with the communities. The workshops centred on practical skills and accessible materials.
The brief
Share jewellery-making techniques through community workshops, giving participants the materials and guidance to try the skills themselves.
Our role
Kiara brought beads and making techniques into sessions with children and women in the villages. The focus was on learning by doing, with participants choosing their own colours and designs as they practised.
On the day
Participants threaded beads and made colourful jewellery, with guidance through the construction. The designs stayed in their hands, so learning a technique could also mean trying a personal idea.
The finished experience
Finished jewellery and an introduction to practical making skills. These sessions form part of our wider commitment to sharing creative experiences and teaching for good causes.
