The facilitator at the workshop was a lecturer at Kwame Nkurumah University in Ghana, George Kushiator who told Arts & Culture in an earlier interview that he was going to mainly focus on teaching the participants integration of multimedia in painting.

At that time, the facilitator also revealed to Arts & Culture that he had noted that Batswana mainly specialised in representational as opposed to the more challenging conceptual art and therefore, one of his endeavors was to change their mindset in that regard.
