Turquoise Mountain and the Saudi Handicrafts Programme at the Saudi Commission for Tourism and National Heritage have embarked on an exciting collaboration to develop crafts markets and support artisans from Saudi Arabia. We are working to give hundreds of artisans access to new markets and commercial opportunities, while preserving valuable craft traditions.

Our aim is to build a sustainable crafts sector, with a rich product portfolio, that reflects high quality and authentic design with a unique appeal to clients across the Middle East and beyond. In addition to crafts training, we also hold workshops on entrepreneurship, branding, production and more, to help artisans develop their work, individually or as small business or cooperatives.
