Established in 1959, the Uganda National Cultural Centre (UNCC) is a statutory body charged with providing and establishing theatres and cultural centres in the country, encouraging and developing cultural and artistic activities, and providing a home to societies, groups, and, organizations in art, culture, and entertainment.
As the country strives to revitalize the arts and culture sector, practitioners in the field are blaming the delays and apparent stagnation on Uganda National Cultural Centre, which they say is sleeping on the job.
