Mission statement

Pamberi Trust’s mission is to enable performing, literary and visual artists to fulfil their potential and have a mainstream role in the development of the nation. Cognisant of the economic potential of arts industries to generate income through artistic endeavour; and of the need to create free, diverse means of cultural expression; Pamberi Trust exists solely as an enabling facility, by which performing artists, fine artists and producers of literary culture, including the most marginalised, may develop and find the means to promote and perform their works, and participate in building the nation.


Live arts venues

Pamberi Trust operates The Book Cafe and The Mannenbert which present hundreds of live arts events every year in partnership with both top established and emerging artists of Zimbabwe. The lively arts programme includes music, poetry, comedy and theatre, complemented by weekly free film screenings, and monthly Literary, Artists' Voices, Gender and civil society discussions.

Activism is my rent on Earth

Electronic activism . . . get involved and use ICTs to advocate, lobby and mobilize.

Powerlessness and silence go together. We should use our positions not as a shelter from the world's reality, but as a platform from which to speak. A voice is a gift. It should be cherished and used.
~
Margaret Atwood
