🏢 About the local organisation
Slum Sanaa ('eoeSanaa'e is Swahili for 'eoeArts'e ) is a Community-Based Organization established to promote arts-based activities in the slums. Slum Sanaa aims to create a Community Arts Centre with artistes' studios, dance studio, recording studio, design studio and an exhibition space; a base where talents interact, learn, create, and share new ideas and network in order to develop well-organized art groups. These facilities are to be at the slum-based level that is closer to the people. The focus is mostly on young boys and girls between the ages of 1025 years who wish to utilize their talents and by extension, unemployed youths and artists. There are several schools within close vicinity where music lessons are provided after classes and during weekends. The community art center uses the mediums of music, dance, drama, and the visual arts to convey information to the community.
The organization exists on a self sustaining entity through community initiatives around our slum hood and the outskirts of our neighboring slums. They discover, nurture and promote all aspects of art talents within and the outskirts of the community slum hood neighbors. Slum sanaa also needs long term serving international volunteers who are going to be with the organization for a longer period, this is usually healthy for the members to learn more and there won't be interruption during the learning period of his/her expertise.
