Rwanda has rightly earned the nickname of “a land of a thousand hills and a thousand and one opportunities” because of the country’s impressive economic progress. However, after the recentlyconcluded celebration of arts which was the inaugural Kigali Triennial festival, you can now add culture to the list of things the country offers for tourists and investors.
From the start, the Rwanda Arts Initiative team, a cultural NGO created and managed by Rwandan artists, decided to think very big with a particularly ambitious project leaving out no form of art from the 10-day program. The scale of the ambition was in keeping with the ambition of the country, with organizers planning to feature: theater, cinema, music, plastic arts, fashion, culinary arts, art technology, dance, literature, musical, and readings.
