More Fishing.....

We took a trip to the Alaska Informal Settlement in Mamelodi East to meet residents and paint their homes. Whilst there we met Meleney and Leon Kriel who have a fantastic project bringing art to the people of this special place. The children also painted a hubcap for a project we have in London.
