Speaking at a recent Creative Enterprise Showcase Programme in Abuja, Project Manager, Arts and Creative Industry, British Council SSA, Uju Dubas-Agbasi noted that the creative industry in Nigeria is rapidly growing economic powerhouses that are increasingly being recognised as pathways for sustainable livelihoods for young people across art forms.
Dubas-Agbasi said:"However, most creative artistes are faced with obstacles of weak policy support, a lack of infrastructure, low levels of awareness of the livelihood opportunities that exist within the art sectors and limited opportunities especially for networking, collaborations, and skill-sharing. If the industry is properly harnessed and supported, it has the potential of leading the earning index of Nigeria.
"To understand the state of the industry, it is important to highlight some of the several business opportunities that are integral and immensely profitable which include but are not limited to, showcasing of various creative art forms through seminars, art events and residency. "The British Council Creative Economy Showcase Programme aims to stimulate links among Nigerian creatives by providing them access to the British Council exhibition spaces, for displays, showcases and performances. This initiative is in line with our goal at British Council to support the creation of new art and sharing this art to audiences.
"As part of British Council's engagement with the art community and creative entrepreneurs, we have launched this programme and it will run between the months of September 2022 and March 2023. The programme intends to grant selected exhibitors permitted access to use the British Council exhibition spaces (for up to two consecutive days in Abuja, Lagos, Kano and Port Harcourt for displays, showcases and performances.
