about us

The Amanguni Performing Arts Foundation (APAF) was established in 2023 by Thabo Mnguni, a seasoned actor and passionate advocate for the performing arts. Recognizing the transformative power of the arts, Mr. Mnguni founded APAF to provide underprivileged youth in KwaZulu-Natal with opportunities to engage in and benefit from performing arts education. The foundation was born out of a desire to foster creativity, personal growth, and community development through the arts.
