Sales update!

We've had great support from the many visitors to the exhibition.  At the close of Tuesday, sales to date have reached £11,249 which is absolutely brilliant.  We still have some beautiful work to sell, including a couple of really large pieces for someone who has the right setting for them.  And I am delighted to report that "Victim" (see previous posting) has now been snapped up.  Huge thanks to the lady who answered our prayers for Fortune Masiyiwa's work to find its new owner!

For some reason we are having less success in selling wooden pieces than stone ones.  There are some lovely woodcarvings in the show, several of them made by Chenjerai, a nearly-blind artist and others from the Binga people of Northern Zimbabwe.  Try this for a taster, just a part of a beautiful nativity set.
