Almasi Arts Alliance

Co-founded by Danai Gurira, Almasi Arts Alliance is a nonprofit organization that facilitates artistic collaborations between African artists and American artists and artistic institutions. Their goal is to create the next generation of African dramatic artists through training, mentorship and access so that no African story is left untold. Almasi Arts Alliance seeks to build the dramatic arts industry in Zimbabwe and by extension, the continent, and to allow the African artist to pursue a professional career in their land of origin. They also seek to bring the American and the African artist into collaboration, not only to help the African gain skills and exposure, but also to nurture global citizenship and the enrichment of both artistic voices.
