Re: Art Moves Africa - Mobility Grant
Hi, thanks for this information, I am an artists working full time as an art teacher in one of the international School in Lesotho. I work part time regarding my art work . here in Lesotho there is not much of an art scene so one ends up having a huge portfolio of artworks that just sits around in a store room. I have tried to do exhibition but people would just come and look at go. one can not live on her art work. i wish there can be a way that one can do exhibition and sell so that i can be in a position to invite people from other countries to come and exhibit or share information, techniques and skills. then i will know transport will be covered by organisations like yours. i hope one day i will knock at your door and ask for your support. thanks in a million foe providing this information and up with the good work you are doing
