GABORONE, Dec. 15 (Xinhua) -- Botswana held its first national virtual arts and crafts exhibition here on Tuesday in a bid to prop its creative sector, which has been hit hard since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.
"This marks an opportunity for people worldwide to appreciate and experience Botswana culture through the use and manipulation of information technology, which if effectively used will support artists and the buying of their products," said Bruno Paledi, deputy permanent secretary in Botswana's Ministry of Youth Empowerment, Sport and Culture Development.
