Call for applications: Ntwala Oh Yeah! fest in Angola
The organisers of Ntwala Oh Yeah! are accepting applications from artists ahead of the inaugural edition of the festival in Luanda, Angola, from 2 to 4 June.
- The festival is the brainchild of Angolan artist A'mosi Just a Label.
The brainchild of Angolan artist A'mosi Just a Label, Ntwala Oh Yeah! is produced by Konono Soul Arts and will serve as a convergence point for dance, music, literature, visual arts and spoken word.
The festival will spotlight and provide a space for exchange between emerging local and international artists. It seeks to promote culture through talks and workshops about the arts in Angolan society.
The organisers say a highlight of the programme will be the composition of a collective anthem/song by participating artists for each edition.
The submission deadline is 5 April.
