Focus on Literature
Are you interested in music or literature? Do you work in the arts?

We showcase the best in contemporary arts from Sierra Leone and when possible, from the UK. We also support a number of arts projects.

Whilst we are interested in all forms of cultural activity, we have taken a special interest in the field of literature. For some years now we have been working with a number of UK writers and carrying out specialist seminars and work group sessions for aspiring Sierra Leonean writers. Aminata Forna and Carryl Phillips are two of our well-known contributors.

Through the regional ScriptNet and Connecting Futures programmes we have worked with budding scriptwriters to develop their skills.
