South African Freedom Day 2013

South African Freedom Day 2013
Appeared On : April 27, 2013
Location : South Africa


South Africa's Freedom Day marks the country's first democratic elections 19 years ago when Nelson Mandela became the first black president of the newly liberated nation. To celebrate, artists from the bead project Monkeybiz have created a special doodle aiming to capture the spirit of what they hope will be a “united fun day” for all South Africans.

Monkeybiz is a non-profit that commissions artists skilled in beadwork from the townships of Cape Town, creating sustainable employment and empowerment for women. All of the proceeds are re-invested back into community services.
