KLA ART is Kampala’s free contemporary art festival produced by 32° East. The theme of the fifth edition of the festival, KLA ART ’24 is Care Instructions, envisioning our cultural heritage as a series of instructions that we have received on other ways to live. Artists will be supported with the budget and connections they need, for works that spur us all to imagine how older ways of knowing and being can provide us with new visions for an uncertain future. The 2024 Edition is supported by Newcastle University, British Council, and the Prince Claus Fund.

Through our membership programme we offer artists and researchers access to our library and resource centre where we house catalogues, books, magazines, journals, films, a digital library and internet access.

Flexible in format, our residencies are focused on assisting an artist to develop into the next stage of their career. This can include the development of a concept, pushing the limits of their respective mediums and/or intensive research.
