About Us Background

About Open Arts World

We are an arts collective committed to promoting creative endeavors and amplifying excluded voices.

Our Mission

Open Arts is an arts collective committed to promoting the arts and creative endeavours. We touch the expression of passion in the creative arts as part of our mission of making a positive difference in the lives of people in the community through work of arts.

We prioritize works of art and stories from people (women, young people in villages and communities) whose voices have been excluded from the universal conversation, using arts and culture as narratives to influence and shape the reality of life in Northern Nigeria.

What We Do

  • Promote creative expression and cultural heritage
  • Amplify excluded voices and perspectives
  • Create safe spaces for artistic dialogue
  • Foster community engagement through arts
