    Quite good for cultural activities.but I feel the place is gradually loosing it. I have known this place since I was a child and the cultural activities there have reduced. It's also called arts and culture till now for those who have known it for long

    Their sanitary function is horrible! How can there be one toilet in use for an event of over 200 or more people. With no dedicated cleanee in sight and there was no running water. You want to usw here I suggest you take time to check their toilets and other convenience for your guest.. or proactively get your own materials and let someone be there to give assistance to your own guest!

    It's was fun. I specifically visited the gallery I am a lover of art works. I got to relate with artiste, students who are very skilled artist and some staff. I got to see people walk into the art gallery for business purposes, excursions etc.

    People there were very friendly and warm, I got to learn new things and understand the meaning behind different art work. I had a wonderful time.

    It would have been such a great tourist attraction if properly utilized. It's mostly empty but there's a small art gallery on the ground floor. It's a really large artsy building with so many murals. Really beautiful if you ask me. It's just wasting away

    Nicely constructed when it was constructed. A lot of creatives are on ground anytime you go there; artists, graphic artists, theater troupes, dancers, actors and even talkers.
    Maintainance wise, it is appreciable.

    The place is really old considering the nature of things. The art work on the walls are quite lovely and it has an opening once you come through the door which is a preferable place to host an event with the use of canopy of course to block out the sun. The hall is quite small if you have a large guest list and not well ventilated in which the fans can't help the heat. So you can take time out to visit and admire the view.

    This complex is a beautiful place to visit if you're a lover of the arts, it's is literally dedicated to art for the most part. The buildings are elegant and slightly dated, with some of them needing renovations, the buildings are however beautifully decorated with various paintings, and sculptures as part of the architecture. While the entire building is virtually an art gallery, there is an art gallery on the premises you can visit for a tour, it's really cheap to enter, purchasing pieces on the other hand can set you back a few thousands. There are small hut like buildings around the premises, basically leased I imagine that sell small gift items and memorabilia you can purchase for cheap.

    The center is quiet big and have lots of cultural stuff, open to tourists and citizens. It is easy to locate and i guess it is a landmark on its own, it is located in a busy area, housing several businesses such as the print media. Just a visit will convince you.

    Quite an interesting place. Lovely paintings and other art on display in the premises, even on the walls. Lots of space for events too. I think it's suitable for formal and informal gigs. One can easily see the potentials of the place even though it is just a bit short of an artistic delight. This is due to maintenance shortcomings. I hope the people in charge do not let it go to waste gradually.

    Beautiful and welcoming paintings outside, but isn't fully fulfilling the role of an art gallery.

    If we'll managed, it would be one of the places to take future generations to learn about Nigeria's art and culture.

    The Centre for Arts and Culture is centrally located in Abuja. You can get access to anywhere from here. It has a series of shops within its environs (cyber cafe, photo studio, business centers). It is also a location used by Youth Corpers for Community Development Services. Great artworks can also be seen on display.
