#ARToftheCity
Art is in the heart of Artcaffé and what other way would we share this than through the power of art and colour. The Art of the City challenge is giving us another chance to celebrate, inspire and uplift Kenyan creatives by giving you the greatest stage we have to offer to reach all corners of the city with your talent, craft and skill.
This year's challenge is in honour of International Women's Day! We're thrilled to launch the "HerStory" campaign and we hope that you'll join us in celebrating the incredible women who have shaped us. We believe that the stories of women who have made a difference in our lives deserve to be told. From mothers to sisters, wives to friends, we hope that by sharing their stories, we can inspire others to make a difference and to celebrate the achievements of women everywhere
Challenge
Let's show our appreciation for the remarkable women in our lives through artistic expression.
Use colour & creativity to capture & illustrate the influence, accomplishments, and spirit of the unsung heroines in your life, showing how their impact inspires you.
