Hi everyone! I hope you all had a Happy New Year. Roll on 2026!
The first open call of this year explores Care in Kisumu, Kenya. I am looking to collaborate with local artists and writers in Kisumu to produce a book that discusses both the challenges and the triumphs of independent projects. Any form of contribution is welcome. All funds raised from the book will go to support community initiatives of the contributors choosing, including their own personal initiatives. I’m personally partial to the Kaduk Community Farm Project in Homa Bay. (Facebook Link).
This opportunity will remain open for as long as I can fund it. I’m touched by the initiative and entrepreneurship that comes out of Kisumu and it reminds me much of Sunderland’s own work ethic. I’ll be keeping the book permanently in stock here on bookbind.ing and I hope to be able to offer similar open calls just like it.
