ABOUT KIBERA CREATIVE ARTS
The founders of Kibera Creative Arts had two passions: Arts and Community. From the combination of both elements emerged the idea of creating an organization that would help the community thrive in the arts field by providing sufficient affordable resources to allow the multiple talents to thrive. Consequently, Kibera Creative Arts was born in 2016 as a hopeful initiative from and for the community.

People use crafts, poetry, music, painting, dance, acting or comedy as ways to tell their stories. It is the collection of all these diverse talents of the people of our community that draws the fascinating, constantly moving, picture of Kibera.
