Latest News from Gambian Arts & Culture Exchange

In our workshops we encourage the imagination of the pupils to create their own designs and if able carve from start to finish. Group work also offers multiple students to be rewarded by completing larger pieces of work. Alongside the pupil to aid learning we will carve and design using our experience and expertise from start to finish. We believe this helps to demonstrate the skills required to bring dead wood to life as artwork.
