Victoria Nalongo Namusisi, Bright Kids Uganda Co-Founder and Director, was invited to Pittsburgh, PA to be the guest of honor at the Pulitzer prize winner Martha Rial Photo Exhibit, “In Uganda, a School to Call Home.” In November, 2015, Martha Rial traveled to Uganda to photograph the work Victoria and Medi Bugemebe are doing in their Uganda children’s homes. Her photos can be viewed at the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust’s 937 Gallery, Pittsburgh, PA. The exhibit runs from September 23, 2016 through November 13, 2016.
Victoria and several University of Pittsburgh GSPIA interns spoke at the photo exhibit’s Community Forum on September 29, 2016. They related many stories about the children Victoria and Medi help and many whose photos are part of the exhibit. Over one hundred guests attended the event and enjoyed the good food and wine while viewing the stunning photographs.
