On 20th of November 21, Little Treater hosted the biannual Artisan Market for the 22th time. The Centre has supported this popular market for 14 years and continues to attract large numbers of customers and vendors.
The opportunity for artisans to exhibit their products on a scale of this size has undoubtedly led to the growth of Tanzanian art businesses, which are now able to test their mettle on an international level. But there is also a deeper purpose accomplished by the Artisan Market.
The emphasis in these collectives is not only to make a profit to fund charitable works, but to train and empower people to live more independently, stable, and fulfilling lives. The artisan market is thus, a great place to support sustainable human development, while also doing some affordable shopping of unique handmade products.
The Artisan Market stimulates Tanzanian commerce and creativity as a competitive and bustling atmosphere that allows vendors to make large profits and gain invaluable exposure to shoppers from all over Dar es Salaam.
Dar Life warmly congratulates the organizers and the vendors. Be sure to keep an eye on the next Artisan Market in May 2022!
