The story

The Arusha Maasai Art Cooperative bridges traditional beadwork and contemporary gallery production — but materials and market access are the gap between a finished piece and a paid one.

What a donation buys

35 USD — a beadwork materials kit for one artisan
85 USD — market-fee and transport for one selling trip
240 USD — one artisan's month of production stipend

Sales figures and an artisan roster are published per market cycle.
