Museum Introduces Outdoor Gallery

The museum's director Stella Rundle said the response from enthusiasts has been encouraging since the first event held on October 25. She said they invite two artists (either painting, sculptures or drawing) and three handcrafts people to participate in the gallery.

"This does not only give exposure to artists who participate in the exhibition but also offers Francistown residents an opportunity to appreciate art. The gallery attracts a lot of people eager to see how some of the artefacts are created step by step. When you see how it's done, that's only when you can truly appreciate art." Rundle said the artists not only bring completed artworks but also work on uncompleted ones, which they finish on that particular Thursday. The event starts from 4pm until 8pm, which does not interfere with the ongoing exhibition inside the museum.
