Callie Vandewiele

Callie volunteered with ETD from 2008 to 2010. While living for a year in Alta Verapaz, she scouted out pikb’il weavers in Alta Verapaz, Guatemala, and learned to weave the ancient style. She worked as an intern setting up mailing lists and surveying museums, and assisted in recent field trips in Alta Verapaz and Chiapas, Mexico.
