At Church of Uganda Family TV, we support internship programs designed to provide learning and growth opportunities and professional experience to students of institutions of higher learning or universities. This year we engaged a number of interns from different institutions of learning. Remarkably, we had the pleasure of working with two amazing individuals from Artfield, who provide tremendous creativity, initiative, and innovation in the graphics and design department. They both show amazing potential and determination for the world of work. We accredit this to Artfield’s invaluable leadership and support.

Walter Photography provides a platform for students to get a tangible experience of photography. We had two students from Artfield intern with us to teach them about photography. Also, we had the pleasure of being hosted at Artfield for a Creative Talk about photography. In our efforts of giving knowledge, we also found knowledge and got to learn new things from Artfield. Artfield is a home for artists; you get to be in an environment where you interact and grow. I would recommend anyone interested in the field of art to study at Artfield.

Elevate and Artfield have a great working relationship which began earlier this year when we got to work with one of the interns from the institution called Jotham Okao. The entire experience was both collaborative and smooth. Through the values instilled at Artfield, Jotham has managed to become a valuable member of our team to date.I recommend Artfield to anyone interested in joining any day
