This centre was founded in 1969 and is a project of the Association for the Physically Disabled of Kenya (APDK). The center trains and employs over 150 persons with disabilities in handicraft production and related business skills. The Cultural Centre portrays the Kenyan way of life as it existed in the past and as it still exists in many remote areas of Kenya.

All hand crafted products manufactured by gifted artisans are displayed in a showroom where visitors are able to purchase high quality products. Fair prices enable the Centre to continue to develop the full potential of the workforce. The exciting songs and dance are “an experience to remember” and a visit to the homesteads which exposes Kenyan culture, Traditional dance, music and theatre at its very best is a “must see!”

Screen printed kikois (traditional Swahili wear), shopping bags and many other fashion accessories and unique carvings handcrafted by disabled artisans are available from this unique center that is a favorite of the traveler.
