What they accept

The magazine reads in January, May, and July, closing the last day of those months at midnight CAT, and submissions are capped. Zambian artists living anywhere may submit in all periods; non-Zambian African artists living in Africa may submit only in January. A one-off $10 payment is offered per accepted artist, not per piece, with no currency named on the page.
