Those "School materials" I will hand over to kids in schools in the countryside in Kenya, Uganda and Rwanda during my cycling trip.
The Kids in East Africa should paint a little NALA Artwork which I send back to the Kids in Königsbrück.
This NALA Painting day was organized by Esther Mukuhi and George Thuita, two artists from the Darubini Art Centre in Kiserian, approx 30 km out of Nairobi, Kenya.
Kids from the Village who start painting and drawing had much fun while create some NALA Artworks. They are not finished yet. The results are shown in the 3rd NALA Exhibition in Nairobi and here on this website late.
Thanks to Esther and George.
The 2nd NALA Painting Day was held on 5.February 2015 in the Jury Gagarin primary school in Königsbrück / Germany. It was nice and funny 3 hours.
After the slideshow about NALA´s Journey from Cape Town to Kenya, the kids create little artworks about NALA in Königsbrück.
Those little paintings will be also shown in the 3rd NALA exhibition in Nairobi, Kenya in (approx.) September 2015
And below the NALA Artworks from the 3a students from the "Jury Gagarin" School in Königsbrück.
The first NALA Painting Day was held on 24.September 2014 in the Dar es Salaam Independent School (DIS) near Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. First I introduced the NALA cycling tour with a 25 min Slideshow and after that, the Students started to paint NALA on her Trip through Tanzania. Those little Artworks I will also show in the next

NALA in CUBA with Friends.
Hello friends of NALA.
In all the years when I traveled the world with my doll, NALA, she got always new clothes in every country, which were sewn for her in numerous countries.
Now she even has more clothes than me, and today I present you exclusively, NALA's new dress from Cuba.
The artist Yailin Morales from Nuevo Paz, CUBA sewed the new dress for NALA with a lot of love, devotion and arrangement.
It was created with absolute love and perfectly handcrafted.
Many Thanks, Yailin for this wonderful Summer-dress.

NALA and Graffity Ana by Richard Scott
Richard Scott is a very well known international British artist who lives in Cape Town. He refined my 2013 NALA painting with his Grafitty Ana.
I visited Richard in his studio in Cape Town in 2019.
He was immediately enthusiastic about my NALA Project and enhanced my little NALA painting with his art.
This NALA painting is now hanging from
22. October 2020 - 10. January 2021 in the
Zeitz Mocaa Art Museum in Cape Town in a special exhibition. "Home is where Art is"
A Big "Thank you" goes to Andrea Schachler. She helped me so much, that this Painting found the way to the Art Exhibition at Zeitz Mocaa. Thank you, Andrea.
Hello friends of NALA.
please see Article here: Nala helps
You will surely remember the NALA Corona Art artworks by Joan Otieno from Nairobi, Kenya.
With the help of my NALA Project, the Kenyan Artist Joan Otieno sold small NALA artworks for over 400 euros. (40,000 ksh)
Many thanks to the buyers from Germany, the Netherlands and Switzerland.
Each sale ensured that everyone had enough rice and beans or corn porridge and vegetables to eat, and the Warembo Wassani Art Center continued to help underprivileged children improve their future.
Unfortunately, these small NALA artworks are still in Kenya and could not yet be sent to Germany due to Corona and high-cost transport costs.
DHL asked for an amount of 300 Euros for 6 kg of recycling art.
If you are flying from Kenya to Germany or Switzerland in the near future, please let me know.
Maybe you can bring the NALA Art package with you.
Thank you for reading.
André Pilz,
