KLA ART '24 - Workshops - Day 2 Part 2

On Day 2 of the KLA ART ‘24 workshops, we welcomed Mirembe Musisi for a conversation on Recipes, Resilience and Regeneration.

Mirembe Musisi is an artist whose practice revolves around the garden and the kitchen. She also runs HumanKind, a line of fermented probiotic products. Mirembe reminded us of our intrinsic connection to nature as a part of it and how that shows up in our food systems and culture. She also took us through a practical fermentation class where participants made their own sauerkraut!

We also received a wonderful tour from Principal Assistant curator Mary Namaganda at the herbarium of the Makerere University Department of Plant Science, Microbiology and Biotechnology that houses just under 100,000 specimens of plants from Uganda
