About African Artists' Foundation
Established in 2007 in Lagos, Nigeria, African Artists’ Foundation aims to encourage the highest standard of art in Africa. African Artists’ Foundation serves a significant role in art and academic communities through organising art exhibitions, festivals, competitions, residencies, and workshops with the
aim of unearthing and developing talent, creating societal awareness, and providing a platform to express creativity. By providing assistance to professional and emerging artists in Africa and support to international exhibitions and community outreach programmes, the African Artists’ Foundation views the contribution to a strong cultural landscape in Africa as a transformative element in driving social change. In addition to a rigorous programme of exhibitions and workshops at its gallery in Lagos, African Artists’ Foundation organises its flagship project, the LagosPhoto Festival, annually.
