Guest Artists Space (G.A.S.) Foundation and Yinka Shonibare Foundation (Y.S.F.) are pleased to announce a new residency collaboration with nonprofit art collective Floating Museum through The Burroughs Residency in Chicago, United States. This initiative expands both organisations' commitment to supporting alumni and nurturing transnational exchange between artists, cultural practitioners, and communities across Nigeria and the United States.

London-based biodesigner and material researcher Akir Hall spent eight weeks in residence at the G.A.S. Farm House in Ikiṣẹ as a recipient of the G.A.S. Fellowship Award 2026. During the residency, he developed a biomaterials library using agricultural by-products and food waste, specifically palm kernel, from the farm and surrounding communities, exploring how materials often regarded as waste can become valuable resources for functional design while reducing environmental impact.

The Centre for Contemporary Art, CCA, Lagos, is an independent non-profit making visual art organisation founded in December 2007 by Bisi Silva (1962 – 2019).
The centre provides a platform for the development, presentation, and discussion of contemporary visual art and culture. It seeks to create new audiences and to prioritise media such as photography, film and video, performance and installation art, which have been under-represented in Nigeria.

Contemporary And (C&) is a platform for international contemporary art and thought. Founded in 2013 as a bilingual online magazine, C& has since unfolded into the C& Cosmos: two online magazines (C& Magazine and C& América Latina Magazine), critical print publications, free education programs, and projects that move between digital and physical space. From reading rooms to mentoring, from artist commissions to the C& Cyclopedia, we create spaces for reflection, connection, and exchange.
 

32° East provides artists with the support, resources, and community they need to advance their craft, critically reflect our world, and imagine a new one. As part of our resources, we house an extensive Arts library that includes catalogues, books on poetry, painting, art theory, modern art, contemporary art, art history, among others
