Puso Weaving Workshop in Cebu

Our instructor, Steph, is a local artist who is incredibly kind and friendly. At the beginning of the class, she explained the cultural and historical background of Pusô, as well as the traditional methods of making it. Then, she taught us how to weave using the materials provided in the workshop kit. Her explanations were very clear, and the materials can even be reused for practice, which is very thoughtful! My nine-year-old was able to complete the project successfully and happily turned two of the Pusô from the kit into keychains as souvenirs. We took the other one home so we could teach family and friends how to make it, turning it into a warm family gathering activity! The material kit includes a QR code for an instructional video, so there's no need to worry about forgetting the steps once you're home. If I have more time, I'd love to sign up for more handicraft activities at Cebu Making Space. It's a wonderful experience to have the opportunity to interact with locals and learn more about different aspects of Filipino culture!

I was clumsy, but her support helped me finish weaving the puso. Her English was very easy to follow, so I’d recommend this workshop to non-native English speakers too. Plus, you get a free drink if you join!

Very fun and informative workshop, highly recommend if you're in Cebu. A cool creative space, friendly facilitators and a fun take home souvenir!

The instructor is very friendly and she made the lesson so easy. We got it immediately because she was so good.
