«Мастерицы объединяются между собой, проводят рабочие встречи, когда они обсуждают, как им ткать. Они не относятся к ткачеству, как к работе на поток, им важно, чтобы их деятельность имела какую-то ценность. Для них коврики и половички — не просто полосатые, цветные, красные или зеленые, они говорят о них так: «Тут у нас закат, тут поле, здесь болото, здесь ягодка». То есть у них эстетическое восприятие своей работы, и это очень чувствуется. Каждый половичок особенный, оригинальный. Из-за того, что это ветошь, узор не повторяется», — говорит Ирина Межинская.
Жители деревни стали чаще обращаться к автору проекта с вопросом: «Чем мы можем заниматься, что продавать, делать, чтобы заработать?». Это история про веру в себя, считает Межинская.
«Еще одна женщина подошла ко мне, она делает тетерки — это такие хлебные изделия из ржаного теста с витыми фигурами, запекаются в печи. Она говорит: «Я могу делать тетерки, но мне нужно придумать упаковку». Наш дизайнер сделал логотип, а продукт получил название «Гостинцик от Большухи». Большуха — это главная женщина в семье. Мы также сделали для нее открытки с описанием и рецептом. Теперь, когда к этой женщине приходят обедать туристы, они могут купить и забрать с собой тетерки в коробке. Я считаю, что это тоже хороший социальный эффект», — говорит Ирина Межинская.

The annual Antonov Apples international apple-and-book festival is held here. The “Heritage Library” Center for Social Innovation in Culture is open for cooperation.
