Aaron empowers Dzivarasekwa through creative arts

THERE is nothing that best exemplifies the spirit of community building than the work being undertaken by 42-year-old Edmore Aaron of Dzivarasekwa, Harare.

Report by Yvonne Nenguwo

In 1995 Aaron started the project Texcraft with the aim of imparting his knowledge in creative arts to members of his community in Harare’s Dzivarasekwa suburb. He was imparting skills in screen printing, visual arts, painting, batik, music and drama so that the members of the community could use this knowledge to start projects of their own and create employment for themselves.
