villagegalleries

JULY 2007

Village Galleries spent 10 days in the Maasai communities of the Monduli District in Tanzania.

 

Children, men and women along with teachers and administrators were given a chance to work with 24 digital cameras and printers in a series of workshops on story-telling through photography

 

 

Our essential hope was to spark imagination and empower the Maasai people. The Maasai people documented and shared their culture with each other and ultimately with the world.

 

This  project owes an enormous debt to Chanel Croker, Amani ECCD Tanzania and the Amani International Foundation.
