Following the success of Hopes and Dreams That Sound Like Yours (2021), Courage to Share (2022), and Whispers and Shouts (2023), Taboom Media and GALA Queer Archive are working to produce a fourth volume of our Queer Activism in Africa anthology. We are looking to commission illustrators from across Africa to visually interpret and illustrate each story.

How to apply: Fill in the following Google Form, upload/link to a portfolio of your recent illustrative work, and tell us why you would like to be a part of this project.

Each illustration commissioned will be remunerated with USD $175 (or local equivalent as determined by interbank exchange rate). 

Illustrators from across the African continent are encouraged to apply.

Application closes Tuesday, 30 April 2024.

Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted. If Taboom/GALA has not contacted you by 21 May, please consider your application to be unsuccessful.
