Mr Maina was hoping to make a strong case on why the cosmopolitan town should get a theatre city status. AdvertisementThe historic visit that would have changed the creative art industry in Nakuru town now hangs in the balance. Mr Maina said to overcome some of the challenges, the project is engaging all stakeholders through public participation. “Tourists will make a stopover and engage locals and this will spur businesses associated with tourism and transform the gang- infested area into a thriving economy,” added Mr Mr Maina. The project is collaborating with UBUNTU creative arts group and is planning to set up a creative art exhibition centre near the park.
