The cover of the 14th issue of @WegandaReview, with art portfolios by J.B. Kanuge & Gor Soudan. As expected, the mix of essays is as compelling as it is eclectic. @PTabaire @YusufSerunkuma @cobbo3 @AndrewMwenda @OdokiJ @Winnie_Byanyima @BBatwooki @Kwezi_Tabaro @BongeMuhwezi

This is the @WegandaReview, arguably the most iconic publication on the Ugandan culture scene: art, culture, poetry, debate, the everyday.
It is like stroll through a gallery.
The layout is so aesthetic, artistic. The pages breath freshness. The print quality top-notch.
Thanks @Roduza

The cover of the 12th issue of @WegandaReview , with striking art by Stephen Gwoktcho. Portfolios are by him & Ronald Odur. Devoted readers can expect the same powerful mix of prose and poetry. @ahpetite @Gyezaho @emutaizibwa @PTabaire @cobbo3 @BBatwooki @BongeMuhwezi @OdokiJ
