Meet Our New Kenya Director

We’re thrilled to announce that Seth Luchemos (pictured above with his wife Matilda) has accepted a part-time position as Kenya Director for Inverted Arts! We’ve had the honor to work with Seth for fourteen years. He began as an Assistant Mentor for music class, took over as Lead Artist Mentor, received a scholarship to study Music Production, and now his company Recreation Factory Arts is one of our Business Partners leading Art Camps across Kenya! As Kenya Director, Seth will continue to direct the Art Camps, oversee our scholarship and small business partner programs, develop a leadership training component, and build new partnerships, including an exciting opportunity in Uganda! Seth also has big dreams to build an Arts Center in the Mathare Valley Slum where students can come discover their talents and unleash their creativity on a daily basis! Watch this video to hear Seth share about his new role with Inverted Arts!
