Thank you for your interest in WEAVE. Join us as we weave our way, with influential force, into the 21st century and into the future of 2-D, 2 1/2-D, and 3-D virtual Avatar Cyberspace. We have a tremendous opportunity to make a significant difference for the future of global communication -- today, as there is no cyber-glass ceiling (yet?). Our creative, intellectual and intuitive input is essential to the communal development of this new medium.

We need women with vision, open minds and hearts, and a creative collaborative spirit. In particular, we are looking for volunteers to be a part of the core team and assist us with administration, web building, and graphics.

We also welcome men who are sincerely interested in joining WEAVE for the great purpose of combining and sharing their skills and talents. Let's join forces in order to make this cyberspace a better and more genuine place to be in - together - as one.

Here is an observation (and comparison) about weaving in the Huichol Indian Culture:

"A weaver conceives new designs through dreams, visions and study. Through the process of weaving, a woman achieves a deeper understanding of her physical, social and spiritual world."

Please contact the WEAVE chairperson Teresa L. Rivera with any interest, questions or brilliant ideas.
