<p>The <a href="http://jordanriver.jo">Jordan River Foundation</a> has a showroom on Rainbow Street where they <em>brilliantly</em> showcase traditional, everyday objects from the region in a fresh, modern way. It’s like someone went and replaced all the things in your grandma’s rural kitchen with newer, brightly accented ones. All of the wood, cloth, and clay work here is produced by people in local communities, and, as far as I know, the proceeds from sales go back to supporting them.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p></p>
|
||
|
||
<p>I commend the <a href="http://www.qrf.org/">Queen Rania Foundation</a> for another seriously impressive initiative. Keep up the good work!</p>
