Welcome to PACE Expressions Arts Foundation.
Our foundation is dedicated to promoting arts and culture to children, youth, and women in Port Harcourt, Nigeria. We believe that the arts have the power to transform lives and bring communities together.
Who We Are
PACE Expressions Arts Foundation was founded in May 2022 by a group of like-minded people who saw the need for more arts education and opportunities in our society. Our Board is made up of passionate individuals who are committed to our mission.
What We Do
Our Foundation offers a variety of programs and services designed to enrich the lives of children, youth, and women in our community. We focus on three main areas: dance and drama, handcrafts, and cultural education.
Dance and Drama
Through our dance and drama program, we provide children and youth with a safe and supportive environment to explore their creativity and develop their talents. Our program includes weekly classes, performances, and workshops with professional artists.
Handcrafts
Our handcrafts program teaches women and children how to create beautiful and unique crafts which are used as costumes, props, gift items and lots more, using traditional techniques. We believe that this program not only helps to preserve our cultural heritage but also provides women with valuable skills and economic opportunities.
Media
Through our media program, we provide a platform for artists to showcase their talents and reach a wider audience. We produce and distribute digital content, including videos, podcasts, and social media posts, that showcase the work of our community members.
Exhibition
Our exhibition program provides opportunities for artists to display their work in public spaces, such as galleries, parks, and community centers. We believe that public exhibitions not only promote the arts but also foster a sense of community pride and engagement.
Cultural Education
We also offer cultural education programs that teach children and youth about the rich history and traditions of Nigeria. Through these programs, we hope to inspire a new generation of leaders who are proud of their heritage and committed to building a brighter future for their communities.
