Chapter Two: FESTAC '77 Beyond Nostalgia [A Salon Conversation]
2026-03-28 15:00 - 19:00 (Africa/Lagos) | Nahous Lagos, 6-8 Ahmadu Bello Wy, Victoria Island, Lagos, 101241, Nigeria
Nahous and Carté Lagos present Chapter Two of the Carté Salon series.
This salon returns to FESTAC ’77, one of the most ambitious cultural gatherings in African history. While the first chapter examined the ideological background and ambitions that shaped the festival, this conversation turns to what followed.
Together we will consider the aftermath of FESTAC ’77: the structures that carried it, the institutions it was expected to sustain, and the question of what remained once the moment of spectacle had passed.
Through archival material, film excerpts, and guided discussion, the salon invites participants to reflect on cultural ambition, memory, and continuity in Nigeria.
The conversation takes place at the Old Federal Palace at Nahous.

Ayotunde Ojo: A Life of Its Own [Solo Exhibition]
2026-03-26 12:00 - 2026-05-16 18:00 | Tiwani Contemporary, Lagos, 13 Elsie Femi Pearse Street, Victoria Island, Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria
OPENING NEXT WEEK
Tiwani Contemporary is pleased to present a solo exhibition by Ayotunde Ojo, ‘A Life Of Its Own’, at its Lagos gallery.
Ojo presents his domestic interiors as living, shifting spaces, altered by light, stillness and movement, subtly capturing the temporal shifts that coexist within a shared space.
The exhibition reflects an awareness that life does not stand still. Relationships between lovers, friends, family and animals carry moments of closeness and potential friction. By layering multiple scenes together, Ojo introduces a quiet tension into the compositions. The home, perceived primarily as a site of stability, can become a space that both shelters and mirrors the instabilities of the outside world.
Exhibition dates: 26 March – 27 June 2026 (Update! Now closing 16th May)
Opening reception: Thursday, 26 March 2026, 6:00 – 10:00 pm

The iREPRESENT International Documentary Film Festival (iREP) has announced a strategic partnership with Ecobank Nigeria for its 15th anniversary edition, scheduled to hold March 18–22, 2026, at the Ecobank PanAfrican Centre, Ozumba Mbadiwe Street, Victoria Island, Lagos.
The 2026 festival marks 15 years since the founding of iREP, acclaimed as one of Africa’s most influential platforms for documentary films. Convened by the Foundation for the Promotion of Documentary Films in Africa (FPDFA), iREP has consistently advanced documentary storytelling, critical discourse, and capacity development across the continent.
With the theme “Transformation,” the anniversary edition will examine the transformative power of documentary filmmaking in Africa over the past 15 years. The various events in the programme – conversations, screenings, workshops, trainings etc – will spotlight the role of documentary films in shaping public discourse, influencing policy, preserving cultural memory, and amplifying African voices on global platforms.
Set against a reawakened African cultural renaissance, the festival reflects a renewed emphasis on African creativity, identity, and talent. Through documentary cinema, iREP continues to place African storytellers at the centre of conversations shaping the continent’s past, present, and future.

"What Shaped Us Does Not Disappear" [Exhibition]

We are pleased to present “What Shaped Us Does Not Disappear,” a solo exhibition by German-Nigerian artist Joke Amusan, opening on Sunday, March 8 at 2 PM
The works inhabit space like bodies in a gentle conversation, revealing the bonds that hold us. Hanging from branches and reaching into space, they bridge the human and natural worlds. Organic forms emerge through cocoons, twisting vines, and spiralling structures that allude to cyclical journeys, movements inward toward origin, and outward across generations

“J’ai vu des choses que j’ai imaginées” (I saw things I imagined) [Exhibition]
2026-03-07 11:00 - 2026-04-05 17:00 | Alara Lagos, 12a Akin Olugbade St, Victoria Island, Lagos, Lagos, 106104, Nigeria
Join us for the preview of Rachel Marsil’s (@rachel.marsil) first solo exhibition in Nigeria, on 7 March from 4pm.
Opening during @lagosgalleryweekend , and the second presentation within FF Projects’ year-long residency at Alára Lagos, the exhibition brings together works made over an 18-month period (2024–2025), during which the artist turned her focus toward the interior lives of her ever-present female figures.
This series also reflects the artist’s own journey into Africa, and how what began as an observational and curious practice, evolved into a welcoming community that she was decidedly part of. As such, these works allow a glimpse into what happens when you cross the boundary of diasporic imagination into local reality.
•
📅Opening 7 March (16.00-18.00). On view until 6 April at Alára

Efuru and The Woman of The Lake [Exhibition]
2026-03-07 11:00 - 2026-03-28 18:00 | Adegbola Gallery, 1619 Danmole Street, VI, Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria
Drawing from Flora Nwapa’s 1966 novel, Efuru, this exhibition takes its name and spirit from a woman who exists beyond the narrow definitions of fulfilment imposed upon her. Efuru is beautiful, capable, generous, and deeply rooted in her community. Though her marriages fail and she is at times misunderstood or even vilified, she is ultimately chosen by the Woman of the Lake, a goddess of wealth, beauty, depth, and abundance. Through this devotion, Efuru finds renewal, meaning, and vindication. Her worth is not diminished by rejection; it is affirmed through alignment with her true self and with a feminine power that exists beyond societal approval.

At its heart, Efuru and the Woman of the Lake is an ode to the strength of women; in communion with themselves and with one another. One of the book’s most resonant threads is its attention to everyday womanhood: women seen not only in moments of crisis or transcendence, but in the quiet intimacy of daily life, labour, conversation, care, and companionship. While Efuru anchors the narrative, it is through her relationships with other women: mothers, traders, friends, and elders, that we are invited into the social and emotional landscape of her world. This exhibition echoes that thread, with many of the works depicting women and girls simply living, working, gathering, and being. [Read more at adegbola.com]

Ilé Àdúà; The Sacred Codes [Exhibition]
2026-03-07 11:00 - 2026-03-28 17:00 | Nomadic Art Gallery, 22 Adetokunbo Ademola Street, Victoria Island, Lagos, Nigeria
Nomadic Art Gallery presents Ilé Àdúà; The Sacred Codes, a duo exhibition by Faith Omole (@faithomole_m) and Paul Ayihawu (@ayihawu02), running from 06 – 28 March, 2026.
This exhibition reimagines prayer as a universal human practice, not just a singular religious act, but a spectrum of intentional actions through which people seek alignment, clarity, and transformation. Expanding beyond devotion, prayer unfolds here through meditation, manifestation, silence, visualization, and embodied attention, becoming a technology of presence that shapes both inner and outer realities.
Rooted in the living metaphysical language of Nsịbịdị, the exhibition transforms visual codes into a connective system that translates invisible states of consciousness into form, positioning art itself as an active form of prayer.
Through Faith Omole’s focus on prayer as action and Paul Ayihawu’s exploration of prayer as inner state, the exhibition creates an immersive space where ritual, stillness, intention, and awareness converge.
📅 Opening Reception: 3:00 PM, Friday, March 6, 2026

Inclusivity: Widening the Frame [+234 Art Fair 2026]
2026-03-05 10:00 - 2026-03-08 18:00 | Ecobank Pan African Centre (EPAC), 270 Ozumba Mbadiwe Ave, Victoria Island, Lagos 270 Ozumba Mbadiwe Ave, Victoria Island, Lagos, Lagos, Lagos, 106104, Nigeria
The 2026 edition of +234 Art Fair is guided by the theme Inclusivity— a commitment to seeing more, not just showing more. Inclusivity is not about adding new doors, but about removing the walls that quietly shape who gets seen. Every art scene is shaped by choices that reflect access and privilege just as much as talent. This year, the fair widens the frame, moving beyond familiar narratives to embrace the breadth of creative expression across Nigeria. Through collaborations with universities, art schools, NGOs, and cultural custodians, +234 Art Fair brings overlooked voices into focus. We have been across the nation searching for promising new artists and this year, we are bringing the unseen into view.

Where, Then, Does Memory Reside?
2026-02-28 14:00 - 2026-03-15 18:00 | Arkhive by Creath, Km 12 Lekki - Epe Express way, Ikota, Lekki 101245, Lagos, Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria
This exhibition asks a simple question: where does memory live?
We often think of memory as something held in the mind But these works suggest otherwise. They propose that memory can live in the body, in our skin, our posture, repetition and in silence.
Where, then, does memory reside?
Perhaps closer than we think.

Talk Your Own
2026-02-21 17:00 - 21:00 | African Artists’ Foundation (AAF) Lagos, 3B Isiola Oyekan Close, Off Adeleke Adedoyin St, Victoria Island, Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria
Today, the room opens.
Everything you’ve been holding
finally has somewhere to go.
No performance.
No pressure to impress.
Just a room that will sit with you
and listen.
Not casually.
Not halfway.
Fully.
This is rare.
A space where you are not content.
Where your vulnerability is not currency.
Where you are seen as a person.
Today, that space exists.
5PM.
African Artists’ Foundation.

The Language of Love
2026-02-21 15:00 - 19:00 | Angels and Muse, 5 Sumbo Jibowu St, Ikoyi, Lagos, Lagos, 101233, Nigeria
Here’s the final lineup you’ve been expecting! Tomorrow, at “The Language of Love,” Mayowa Fagbure (@mayowafagbure), Glory Duruem (@gloryadaduruem), Angel Nduka-Nwosu (@asangelwassayin), and one-time Angels and Muse resident Akumbu Uche will share beautiful and stirring poetry speaking to the different facets of love. Meanwhile, Damilade Omoniyi (@thedemimikayla) will regale us with a moving book reading. Expect warmth, laughter, and the full kaleidoscope of emotions that make us human.
We also encourage you to come ready with poetry, a song, moving words, whatever your preferred mode of expression is, as there will be an open mic session during which the floor will be opened to members of the audience.
“The Language of Love” is free to attend, but spaces are limited and will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
