Thapong Visual Arts Centre will continue to create more opportunities for Batswana visual artists with the lined up events in their calendar this year.

The coordinator of Thapong, Reginald Bakwena, said as an arts centre established to push careers in art, they have decided to bring in more workshops to educate and improve the quality of the artworks. “It has been observed that our local artists lack certain skills,” he said.

Bakwena indicated that this year they will work on those weaknesses to produce strong competitors.

He said the same exhibition will be hosted again in August and September.
