Handicraft association formed

A group of Belizean artisans have come together to form the Belize Woodcarvers and Handicraft Producers Association. The B.W.H.P.A. say they will be examining the role of Belizean handicrafts in the Tourism Villages, the increasing number of imported handicrafts, funding for production and government support, and increasing sales and export opportunities. President is Tony Peyrefitte, First and Second Vice Presidents are Curl Gordon and Anthony Rocario, Treasurer is Francisco Cano, while Assistant Treasurer is Hugh Broaster. Craftsmen countrywide are invited to become a part of the new organisation and to attend a meeting at the University of Belize, West Landivar Campus at ten a.m. this Saturday.
