First Ever Photowalk To happen in Owerri this Saturday

On the 13th of February, 2016, something new and exciting will happen in Owerri (in select areas though). It is the first ever Photowalk to be organized in Owerri, and possibly in the south-east.

We hope to bring out “The real essence of Owerri through” through our pictures and we are confident in the creative potential of the people who have indicated interest to participate.
