James Nsamba reports from Namungona, “Abib Mpima is now making a living from skills he learned in Uganda Art Consortium children’s workshops in 2008-2009.”
Nsamba, teacher and coordinator of our Namungona program says, “In the workshops he learned how to make bangles and bracelets. Now he makes dozens at a time and sells them wholesale to shops in Kampala. He still comes back to the Namungona studio every few days to make more jewelry. We’re also going to use him as a teacher to other kids in our next workshop coming up in November.”
