Introduction
“We are an organisation of excellence that changes the lives of artists and crafters by empowering them through innovative skills training, development and promotionâ€
The African Art Centre, a Section 21, Non-Profit organisation has a reputation, within South Africa and internationally for supplying specialized, high quality products. Regular Development Projects presented by the Centre not only focus on skills transfer and product development but also on the preservation of traditional craft skills. Over the past 54 years, the Centre has reached out to some of the poorest communities in KwaZulu Natal; rural women, the disabled, the unemployed, youth and persons affected by HIV and AIDS. We continue to represent the interest of crafters and artists by supporting and promoting their work from our shop in Florida Road, Durban and also via retail markets in the rest of South Africa and abroad. Every purchase made from the African Art Centre provides income and employment for more than 600 artists and crafters currently supported by the Centre.
