From 4 - 6 November, ART X Lagos, the leading international art fair in West Africa, will return for its seventh edition at The Federal Palace, Lagos, with 31 African and diasporan galleries.

It’s been 7 years of creating and evolving West Africa’s leading international art fair, and our refreshed brand identity reflects our re-energized commitment to celebrating and amplifying the breadth of Africa’s creative expression.
