Exploring Cultural Heritage: Basket Weaving in Kigali



Gather at the designated time at the Golden Coffee Roastery café, where our enriching workshop will commence. Set in the center of the Rwandan capital, local artisans will greet us, guiding us through the traditional craft of basket weaving. With the expertise of our skilled instructors, we will delve into the significance behind each intricate design.



To start, we’ll hear personal anecdotes that intertwine the cultural significance of weaving in Rwanda. Armed with the necessary materials and under the guidance of our teachers, we will practice the delicate techniques of Rwandan basket weaving.



As your hands mold the baskets, you’ll experience the vibrant essence of a craft that has been cherished through generations. Each hue and motif will link you deeply to the community and its heritage.



After two hours of creative engagement, not only will you leave with a beautifully crafted basket, but also a piece of the history and spirit of Rwanda to cherish.
