Over 9,000 learners experienced contemporary African art in 2023, gaining skills in self-expression and problem-solving through hands-on art-making. A true celebration of creativity and African culture.

Live Slow by the Sea

This coastal home in Devon, designed by Pernille Lind, blends modern elegance with a relaxed seaside vibe.

The design mixes traditional and contemporary elements, creating a serene, functional retreat ideal for social gatherings.
