Mzansi Arts Development Ensemble (MADE) is a non-profit and community-driven organisation registered on 26 September 2005, based in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. The founder was driven by the lack of skills, slow growth and recognition of the South African Arts Industry. As such, MADE promotes Arts and Culture as a source of personal fulfilment and carves a potential career path for its students as professional dancers, theatre practitioners, musicians and crafters etc.

Mzansi Arts Development Ensemble’s purpose is to prepare an artist, with strong personal interests in the arts, to pursue successful entry into an institute of higher learning and/or career in the performing and fine arts by channeling their unique skills and talents, through an intense, integrated academic, training and development programme.
