The Inyathi, a journal on arts found its way to the homes and hearts of artists and art lovers. A thousand copies, reprinted a number of times established its motto of focussing on Southern African Arts and its dedication to the South African Art World. The journal was not only loved by South African Artists, Art Faculties in South African Universities but also found subscriptions in the United States, India and Pakistan. The credit for its success goes to the contributors who are, Mathemba Nocoyini, John Steele, Cornelius Thomas, Leon du Preez, Volkmar Dobat, Judy Fish, Terry Flynn, Barry Gibbs, Pumlani Mbanya, Mumtaz Kader and Rentia. It is my greatest pleasure as its editor to announce the publishing of the next issue and call for papers and research oriented articles on art. I would also love to establish an editorial committee which would take-up in improving the journal by providing advice on production and content of the journal. The Poets Printery, South Africa which publishes this journal would be delighted to give distribution rights to artists, art lovers and book shop owners in various cities in South Africa and abroad.
