About the founder
Nani Croze had a vision about giving back to the community in which she had learnt to thrive, so like her father before her she chose to support artists from the East African region and give them an oppportunity to be seen by buyers, collectors and galleries even when they didn't have the means to do themselves.
Now in its 12th edition the diary is a trailblazing contemporary art catalogue. The diaries, including short artist biographies and contact details, and have showcased the works of over 700 painters, sculptors, crafts people and photographers from across the region.
