The Centre has a diverse collection of art by a multitude of artists, celebrating Nigeria’s talent, offering visitors an insight into all cultures of Nigeria through the medium of art. The gallery is open 7 days a week often holding art exhibitions, workshops and cultural days. The tours offer overnight accommodation at her guesthouses, and partake in creating traditional African crafts such as adire, batik, indigo, beadwork, painting, or carving. Nike Art Centre is an impressive gallery and a must for art lovers.
I visited Nike Art Gallery about four months ago on a Thursday. As a designer and art lover, I truly enjoyed my experience there. Despite the high expectations from the great reviews on Google, the incredibly creative artworks still managed to exceed them—they were absolutely mind-blowing! The attendants were friendly, and I even noticed a group of students there on a tour with their tutors, which I found really nice and educational. Mama Nike herself was also very friendly and happy to take photos with visitors. I spent hours exploring each floor and admiring the art—it was a truly immersive experience. Overall, Nike Art Gallery is definitely a “must-visit” spot in Lagos. I highly recommend checking it out!
