In the vibrant city of Cartagena, a unique narrative unfolds through the pages of 'Tejiendo Calle, Weaving Streets.' This remarkable book, published by Villegas Editores, captures the spirit and strength of local women who have been integral to the urban fabric for over 40 years.

The book begins with intimate portraits of 50 women, inviting readers to see them as individuals with their own stories. Each chapter explores different aspects of their lives—from a ceremonial foot-washing by their granddaughters to the protective amulets they carry, emphasizing the rich cultural heritage that guides them.

A highlight of the book is its recognition at the Indigo Design Award 2020, where it won Gold in book design, a testament to its artistic beauty and the significance of its subject matter. Available in both Spanish and English, 'Tejiendo Calle' serves not only as a visual representation but also as an educational journey into the social and territorial heritage of Cartagena.

With an introduction by Claudia Mosquera, this book aims to raise awareness about the roles these women play in their community, celebrating their contributions while preserving their stories for future generations.
