Gone Arty, the trade name of the Vhufuli Art Foundation, was founded by José Verweij-Hoogendijk in 2000. This foundation supports small-scale producers from remote areas in Africa by providing them access to the European market. By creating equal partnerships between producers, importers, stores and consumers, they reinvest part of the profits in projects that improve working and living conditions. With Gone Arty, you bring a piece of authentic Africa to your interior, while contributing to fair trade and sustainable development.

At Beterleven.net, we sell beautiful wicker bags and colourful bolga baskets from Gone Arty.
