WEAVE with OKAPU


Basket weaving wonderfully highlights Kenya’s heritage, creativity, and communal spirit. Every weave is a story of patience and artistry, remembering the traditions passed down through generations of women.


Here at Okapu, we honor that legacy, by creating meaningful weaving experiences & beautiful pieces.


Our classes are designed for everyone and all levels from travelers seeking authentic Kenyan culture, expats looking to try something mindful, or Kenyans looking to reconnect. We invite you to slow down, bond, and create through our basket weaving experiences. Learn from skilled artisans under the shade of the trees for a real home grown experience.


We offer flexible private classes perfect for couples, families, schools or small groups wanting a more personal experience. You can also join our group class every 3rd Sunday of the month in Nairobi for a relaxed afternoon of creativity and rich conversations.

I lost my grandma last year and weave with Okapu helped me reconnect with our favorite thing to do together

There is a huge difference when someone does something out of passion and love. Felt it with my first steps into the workshop. It was so cozy and heart warming. Looking forward to more
