The Thuthuka Jewellery Development Programme is proud to
present an exhibition of jewellery designed by students from community schools
and universities across the country. Hosted in the FADA Gallery, this annual exhibition celebrates an
extraordinary mentorship programme that focuses on design and skills
development, and the competition enables each student designer to explore their
creativity using sterling silver and other metals to meet the brief.

Every year since 2008, students have
been mentored one-on-one over a three-month period, from conception through
design to production. The work this year explores and interprets the best of
the country’s musicians, dancers and performers, where each student has focused
on the style and impact their chosen entertainer has made on our culture. For
the students this has entailed a personal journey and vision, producing work of
a highly intricate, creative and skilled nature.
