Easter Weaving Room is an institution more than a hundred years old that's been nurturing the age-old tradition of manual fabric manufacturing as well as provide livelihood to locals. It's also a souvenir shop where various handicrafts, besides cloths and fabrics, are sold to tourists at not so touristy prices.

How to get to Easter Weaving School Room | Easter School Baguio
Driving Directions: From Baguio plaza, head to Abanao then turn right to Bokawkan Road. Turn left to Easter Road where the Easter Weaving School and the Philippine Episcopalian Church is located on your right about 500 meters from the corner of Bokawkan Road.
Commute to Easter Weaving Room:
From around Burnham Park, look for jeepneys with signboard Baguio Plaza-Quezon Hill-Tam-awan Village and request the driver to drop you off in front of the school, souvenir shop and Episcopalian Church.
We bought (and framed) two pieces of cloth with jar design (for luck daw) from there. There are many such cloth with jar designs anywhere in Baguio but what is special in the ones we bought is the Easter Weaving Room insignia sewn in them.
