  hullo karen, My name is Nabunjo Florence i use maria Florence on the email,
  am an art student at maker ere university in Uganda,
  
  My understanding about Uganda art
  
  Ugandan art and culture is done in different aspects, its done in
  photography painting,  fashoin,weaving, print making, story telling, and
  also visual drawing. Here at school of art we do different types of art
  like weaving, painting in this we have water and oil painting, photography,
  sculpture and other more. Here at MTSIFA students are usually told to do
  work in relation to the mood or concept.
  
  Art and craft are part of our culture. Crafts have been developed
  through the traditions of the people. Art and craft are a result of the
  feelings of the people responding to a variety of historical events and
  influences and the environment in a most spontaneous manner. Art in Uganda
  is like an expression that is done by people with love, how they feel and
  also according to their past experience. Here people make baskets, weaving
  and painting according to their feeling. for-example, the cooking stones
  that they use in Uganda were done in away that they pick three big stone
  place them at different angles thus making a triangle this is where they
  would place the fire wood put up the fire then cook, but according to
  culture one wasn't supposed to sit on theses cooking stone because they
  usually said that if you sit on them then you would not grow tall. this
  avoid people from sitting on them yet in really sense they just didn't want
  kids to sit on those stones cause in most cases they would be hot that
  means they would burn them so this shows that the Ugandans hand art in
  putting up these cooking stones and added culture to it as written above.
  
  Dance and drama is one aspect that has been crucial in the lifestyles
  of all tribes in Uganda in terms of art and culture . There was music for
  every social function and aspect of life and generations and there were
  drams that were made for every sound they wanted to [3 artworks sent to group]
