Photographers Meg Stacker, Scott Macklin (Obumu Collective), and Jonathan Cunningham have collaborated with One Vibe-Africa, in Kenya and the Bavabuka Foundation, in Uganda to do an art showcase, Ziwa, at art gallery 2312; off 2nd Ave in downtown Seattle. The showcase brings awareness to their recent works and introduces their newest projects that they are working on. The grand opening of the showcase featured some performances from Kenyan and Ugandan artists, as well as the foundations founders and photographers briefly speaking. The art will be displayed all month, and all the proceeds go towards strengthening both foundations art programs for the youth. In this episode, we got a look inside both foundations and One Vibe- Africa's newest photo project.
