Centre for Art and Creative Talent

Centre for Art and Creative Talent Established in June, 2012, we are a non-partisan organization Art is a key driver of innovation. Art is an essential but often undervalued part of education.

The Centre for Art and Creative Talent (CACT) is a non-profit organization that expands creative opportunities and enriches lives while enhancing the cultural community of our country Nigeria. We founded the Center for Art and Creative Talent (CACT) in order to improve the visibility and opportunities for emerging artists in Nigeria. CACT seeks not just to celebrate our collective and individual c

reativities, but also to nurture and support creative talent by providing an accepting and motivating community for artists and the people around them. CACT believes that:

Art and creative talent in its many forms are as essential for a country’s positive development and growth as well as economic or political growth. It expands the thought processes, invites discussion and allows for an escape from the everyday stress of life into the dream space where new ideas about who we are and visions of whom and how we can be; are born. Art can help us learn how to better communicate. It can help us build the confidence we need to make bold decisions as individuals and as a people. Art is necessary to unite Nigeria’s often factitious and contentious social and religious ecosystem. Like sport, art can bring communities together to celebrate achievement, excellence and shared heritage. Even when contentious, if properly contextualized, art can prompt a discussion about different beliefs, ideas and cultural practices that can lead to greater understanding and productive change. The foundation strongly believes in the values of leadership, diligence, discipline, dedication and determination as fundamental requirements needed for the success of every purpose driven organization. Art is who we are, how we live, where we live, and why we live.

It is her family's heritage. Drumming is a major ritual during the Argungu fishing festival. This again shows that in all cultures women play major roles in preserving them.
