A Long House

A Long House is an independent literary and visual arts organization that takes its name and inspiration from the historic A Long House in Kampala, Uganda—a gathering place for writers and artists during the post-independence era. Founded to honor that legacy, the organization supports emerging and mid-career artists whose work engages with questions of home, migration, and cultural memory. Its flagship program, the Rajat Neogy Fellowship, is awarded annually to a writer or artist of exceptional promise, providing a residency, publication opportunity, and a modest stipend. The fellowship is named after Rajat Neogy, the visionary editor of Transition magazine, whose commitment to intellectual freedom and pan-African dialogue remains a guiding principle.
