Meet a Member: Fireside Chat with Hedy Hollyfield

Wednesday, September 9, 2026 at 3:00 PM U.S. Eastern Time

Join WARP for our September Fireside Chat with Hedy Hollyfield! During our monthly Meet a Member program, we get to know a different WARP member each month.

Hedy Hollyfield is retired from her formal career in the pharmaceutical industry. She is one of the founders of Ayni, Inc., a small not-for-profit company that imports textile products primarily from Ayacucho, Peru. Ayni’s goal is to help preserve the rich textile traditions of this community near the heart of the Wari culture. Any proceeds from sales are funneled back to the community to be used for social welfare or education projects. Anyi has partnered with ANFASEP, the earliest human rights group in South America, founded during the ‘time of terror’ during the Shining Path revolution in Peru, to teach the widows from this time needle felting and to sell their products at shows.

Please note that if you would like to attend but are unavailable at the time listed, register anyway and you will receive a link to the recording as soon as it is available.
