On Africa Day, we celebrate the dynamic and diverse contributions of Africans that influence and impact our world. ❤️💛💚

Happy Africa Day! 🌍

Did you know about the captivating Direct Carving Technique of Shona sculpture? Shona artists craft intuitively, letting the stone's natural form inspire their creations, infusing each piece with authenticity and energy.

For many Shona sculptors, their art isn't just passion—it's vital economic empowerment. By selling their sculptures, they support families and communities, driving socio-economic growth in Zimbabwe's rural areas. Let's celebrate Africa Day by honoring this rich cultural legacy together!

Our show will only be in Houston for another week so why not head down to Houston Botanic Garden to experience our Shona sculpture exhibition😁
