Just a quick note to let you know of an opportunity to buy beautiful handicrafts from Tanzania. We have sent to the US a wide assortment of crafts purchased throughout Tanzania. They will make excellent gifts and conversation pieces.

If you can’t make it to these sales in Minnesota, you may, as always, contact us directly. We are always looking to connect local Tanzanian artists with customers around the globe and will do our best to facilitate large or small transactions.

Crafts are available for purchase in New Hope, Minnesota, on Wednesday, November 9, from 3:00 PM until 8:00 PM, at the home of Kenneth Wall. (Andrea’s father.)

Address: 8924 - 40 1/2 Avenue North in New Hope.

Please call Kenneth Wall for further directions if needed. 763-544-6086.

Crafts will also be available at the The World Jubilee Sale at Colonial Church of Edina, MN, on November 12 from 9:00 AM until 4:00 PM.

All further proceeds of all items sold will be used to further the work of PEN Trust.

Here are a few pictures of items that will be available for sale:
