Our Story
From brushes to a movement
BERITO began as Painting With Chim, a creative experience founded by award-winning visual artist Chimwemwe Luwanda.
After years of exhibiting and selling artwork, Chimwemwe realised that many people admired creativity from a distance but rarely had the opportunity to experience it for themselves. What began as guided painting experiences quickly became something much larger.
People were not only looking for art. They were looking for connection. They were looking for community. They were looking for meaningful ways to spend their time. As the experiences grew, so did the vision.
BERITO emerged from the belief that creativity extends beyond painting — it lives in books, conversations, puzzles, walks, ideas, shared experiences, and the simple act of making time for what matters. Today, BERITO continues to evolve as a home for curious minds, creative spirits, and anyone seeking a more intentional way to engage with the world.
