Arts & Crafts - Nairobi, Nairobi County, Kenya
The GoDown Arts Centre is home to Kenyan creativity in arts and culture. Established in 2003, in a space that was formerly a car repair warehouse, the centre has contributed significantly to the growth, recognition and visibility of local artist by fostering and facilitating collaborations and encounters between artists from different disciplines and parts of the world.For 15 years the GoDown has served as a home, workplace, meeting place and address for artists, and has contributed to their stability, legitimacy, visibility and creative confidence. The strength of the GoDown as one of Kenya's leading centres for arts and culture lies in its diverse programming: the training and development of artists, alongside sector impacting events such as the East Africa Arts summit, the Creative Entrepreneurship and Copyright courses, and local events such as Dunda Mtaani, Nai Ni Who and the GoDownGig. Now the GoDown plans to transform itself into one of East Africa's leading contemporary arts complexes, and to significantly expand its role as an open, accessible community space for Kenyans.
