The Dancing Pots Tour offers a deep, immersive experience into Rwanda’s living culture, where resilience, creativity, and inclusion come to life through pottery, music, and dance. This journey celebrates the legacy of Abbé Fraipont Ndagijimana—a Belgian priest who devoted his life to uplifting people living with disabilities and the Batwa, Rwanda’s Indigenous community.

Through engaging hands-on pottery sessions, visitors learn traditional techniques passed down for generations, from shaping raw clay to firing pieces in a traditional kiln. The tour connects you with members of the HVP Gatagara, Gatagara Pottery, and the Urumuri Women’s Cooperative—communities transformed by Fraipont’s vision of dignity and opportunity.

The empowerment of Gatagara members now extends far beyond cultural sharing or economic gain; they stand as a powerful example of inclusion, fully integrated into the social and cultural fabric of Rwanda. Expect heartfelt welcomes, soulful performances, and an unforgettable connection to Rwanda’s spirit of transformation.
