The First Ibom International Art and Book Festival is Here!

The Ibom International Art and Book Festival,  an initiative of Inspire Community Network (ICON), a non-governmental organization presents an opportunity for African writers to showcase their works and meet new audiences.

The initiative was founded with the aim of spotlighting undiscovered art and artists as well as the celebrated ones.

The first edition, themed “Reclaim and Redefine: The Artist and the Art,” attempts to bridge the gap in the representation of artists and arts in books, and art festivals around the world. The three-day festival will run from the 28th July, through the 31st at Ibom Hotel and Golf Resort in Uyo, the capital city of Akwa Ibom State, South-Southern Nigeria.

The festival will host over 2000 writers, poets, musicians, artists, dancers, filmmakers, actors, students, book lovers, entrepreneurs, and cultural enthusiasts, nationally and internationally, to dialogue and celebrate creativity and diversity through panel discussions, book chats, art exhibitions, workshops, book fair, vendors exchange, documentaries, exhibitions, poetry performances, and concerts.

The Ibom International Art and Book Festival aims to promote a space where diverse interests in literature can be welcomed. For three days, creatives including poets, musicians, artists, dancers, filmmakers, actors and others will come together based on their love for books and art.

Stellar Guests expected at the event include Nigerian writers A. Igoni Barret, Iquo Dianabasi, cartoonist and critic Mike Asukwo, and a host of emerging and established writers and artists. A. Igoni, Nadia Hashimi and Burns Effiom, are keynote speakers expected to speak on Diversity, Representation and Inclusion and Collaboration respectively.
