WHO WE ARE

We are a public benefit, non-profit organisation encouraging creativity and healing through art to build strong communities of active, artistic and stable citizens able to recognise and utilise opportunities.

WHat we do

We train and mentor a movement of Community Art Facilitators (CAFs) to provide psycho-social support through art therapeutic classes to children in under-resourced South African communities.
