Seeking fun, funky and functional designs

Creative challenge from found objects
Post-Covid, the Omba Gallery wants to stimulate new craft products from fun, funky, functional products made from found objects.
In light of this, they invite creatives to submit ideas and prototypes of new products created from old – corporate gifts, home décor, homeware and fashion accessories or anything else interesting that could capture the imagination of local or international buyers.
Products should have marketing potential either as once-off commissions or as items that can be mass-produced. The Omba will create marketing, promotional and sales opportunities for selected products at the Namibia Craft Centre and our website.
The top three most marketable products (chosen by secret vote) will be eligible for prize money.
The final selection will be showcased at an exhibition in the Omba Gallery in July 2022.
The deadline for submissions of expressions of interest is 12:00 on Friday 13 May. Info: [email protected].
