Reviewed By KatyaZnZ

Yawara Gallery is a very unique selection of the finest Tinga-Tinga paintings. It is a very special collection of exceptionally talented artists from Tanzania, who are all unique story tellers conveying their life experiences, wisdom and vision through the Tinga-Tinga traditions and style. It’s hard to find similar quality work elsewhere, so you better not miss the opportunity when you’re in Zanzibar. Support these supremely talented artists by purchasing their beautiful works. Beside the Art Gallery, Yawara provides an excellent pressure point Japanese massage. All masseurs are highly qualified and certified through the reputable Japanese Shiatsu school. Very effective traditional Japanese massage, I thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommending to everyone who seeks muscles stain relief. Exceptionally good!

If your looking for the good quality souvenirs and art.., art treasure gift shop is well worth visiting for. They have a good collection of art, antiques, souvenirs and much more and also their price is nice with a little sale pressure even when our sales person was with us. Their price was reasonable compare to other galleries we visited in Moshi. Fantastic!!!

The Beautiful Eyes

We start more than three year ago, a fine art photo gallery in the centre of Stone Town in the former tourist shop of Zakia.The idea to initiate The Beautiful Eyes as a place to present art photography started in May 2008 when three photographers visited Zanzibar for a week of photography. They missed a place to talk, present and even to buy photography.In September 2008 Hans Agterdenbos, one of the three, came back to stone town and started investigations to open a gallery. He met Zakia Abdullah they married in march 2009 and they founded The Beautiful Eyes place to talk about photography, find inspiration and maybe good ideas. Up to the present time ±4500 visitors found the way into there gallery.Some take an original photograph home, others attend one of the workshops the Photowalk© the Shambawalk© the Pembasafari. Most caught some inspiration and all of them left the gallery with a good feeling and positive words

Hurumzi Henna Art Gallery

The women of Hurumzi Henna Art Gallery transform traditional henna body arts into paintings and prints . Using a centuries old tradition of adorning women's hands and feet for celebrations such as weddings and festivals, the artists translate the patterns of the body art onto canvas creating a new and soon to be iconic art style through their elaborate paintings.

Chuma Art Workshop

Wonder Workshop was home of 30 plus physically disabled men and women from all over Tanzania. For more than 11 years it was committed to training and empowering the artisans with skills like welding, carpentry, paper and bead making. In October 2017, Wonder Workshop was officially closed as it ran out of Business. Chuma Art Worskshop is a story of hope to the Artisans who were still very passionate about the authentic detailing, sculpture and designing the weldedart pieces. Chuma values the quality of the items we design, every piece of scrap metal was intentionally placed to compliment every other that completes the whole sculpture or functional item. Four Brave Artisans, found Chuma Art Workshop in December 2017, and it been growing ever since. Out BIGGEST DREAM is that we are able to improve living standards of as many physically disabled artists as we can reach. By reading and sharing this articale you are helping us achieve this dream and we thank you! Also Welcome to our Work

Tingatinga Arts Cooperative Society

Reviewed By DrJamieB19 - Philadelphia, United States

I traveled with my adult son and teen daughter and we each found something we loved at the Tingatinga Arts cooperative. Adamson's #007 had authentic wood carvings, ceremonial knives, and portraits, and the stalls on both sides had collectables as well. We went three times and would have stayed longer (and shopped more) if they had a place to eat and relax.
