The Exhibition of Wiki Loves Africa winners will show the finalists of the Wiki Loves Africa 2015 photographic competition that has resulted in over 6500 uploads in 2014 and 7500 image uploads in 2015 to Commons around the themes of Cusine and Cultural Fashion and Adornment, respectively. Each year the photo contest entries were reviewed by a panel of experts (Wikipedians and photographers) who collectively identified the top photographs that were submitted. The exhibition is the first time that both sets of winners have been shown to the Wikimedia community.
