Uhuru Furniture & Collectibles is looking for volunteers who are interested / experienced / love to paint furniture. We also recover chairs and stuff pillows. These hand painted furniture pieces, stuffed pillows and recovered chairs will be part of our latest NZO - African Styles at Home and Abroad line being sold in our Oakland store. These workshops will be held at our historic Akwaaba Hall in East Oakland two Sunday's a month. We need volunteers for Sunday shifts 11 am to 3 pm. Training is included.

NZO is an African word that means home and and we are incorporating vibrant African designs into the furniture pieces that we sell at Uhuru Furniture. Uhuru Furniture & Collectibles is a non profit organization that strives to make African people economically self reliant.
