June 2020, 50 artists from 7 African countries have been awarded a 1,500 bursary following an appeal launched by Africalia. The grant was used by the winners to carry out artistic projects based on the themes of "Here and Now" and "The World of Tomorrow", during a 2-month creative residency in their own homes.
