Exploring Five Thriving Indie Art Spaces in African Cities

Imagine artists creating their own special places, called offspaces, in cities.

These spaces are like DIY art centers, focusing on new ideas and being open to everyone.

They're popping up all over Africa.

One place, the GoDown Arts Centre in Nairobi, is being rebuilt to be a big cultural center.

Another, ANO Institute in Accra, uses art to make things happen in the community.

In Cairo, Townhouse Gallery closed, but its spirit lives on in a new art space.

Zoma Museum in Addis Ababa is built in a way that respects nature.

These spaces give artists a place to work together, share their ideas, and make their cities better.
