The Iganyana Arts Centre is a centre in Dete, Zimbabwe dedicated to capacity building for local craftsmen.  The centre receives snare wire taken in by local anti-poaching squads and turns it into craft products for sale at the centre and throughout the world.



Proceeds go to school fee's, artist salaries, and to Painted Dog Conservation.  The resulting crafts are sold in Holland, the UK, the US and at auction houses such as Christie's.
