The Global stage was crowded this year and I feel was slightly over subscribed with more stalls all the way around the entrance to the lays Global Stage and onto the otherside. Not sure if its a good or a bad thing. It looked overcrowded by stalls but it could be argued that it gave a Mbare like market feel. We attended the bead making workshop which was facilitated by Kati Torda from Ghana. Ubuntuism seem to have become a regular as they have showcased their quality T-Shirts for the past three years.

Audience at the Youth Zone
Extra seating in front of the Youth Zone stage

This year the Youth Zone was a structured slightly different. Through out the years it has been a free space for the kids but this year they commercialised it. There was a day pass that was required and you could watch shows there through out the day. We didnt attend many shows this year. There was the Guitar workshop by Prayersoul and the Chisipite Senior Girls Choir. The Simba mascot also made an appearance this year!

Development of Graphic Design in Zimbabwe (1980 - 2000) - Interviews & Stats

Since there were no books on design in Zimbabwe all information had to come from interviews and stats were based on surveys I carried out on my own.

Statisics
From the information I was gathering for my project I compiled a couple of statistics about the industry and college. I must note that these statistics are estimated which I concluded from the research I did.



Design Education in Zimbabwe 1980 - 2000

Design education in Zimbabwe is the nucleus for the development of design in Zimbabwe. The more educated the community and designers are the higher the level of appreciation and value placed on design. In this chapter we take a look at the development of design education in Zimbabwe and where it is going. For my information on design education I was referred to Anthony Mellon who’s been very influential in the graphic design in Zimbabwe. We will see the important role he played. Mellon was a lecturer at Bulawayo Polytechnic College teaching design in the late 60’s.
