Wimbe Artist Residency & Exhibition

In partnership with ArtMalawi and acclaimed Malawian artist Charles Levison, Madalitso Ziwaoh, Samuel Ndalema, and Manota Mphande, Moving Windmills Project will help sponsor an exhibition, workshop, and residency that supports education, creativity, and community at our Education Centers.
