The Drill is an innovative response to the art world, prioritizing the well-being of practitioners in an industry that often undervalues it. Our alternative learning system seeks to empower artists, curators, and cultural producers in the African art ecosystem by expanding their knowledge base and equipping them with the tools needed for sustainability. With a focus on education, advocacy, and resource aggregation, we aim to build a thriving community where artists are prepared to navigate the challenges of the capitalist world.

Our mission is to develop a sustainable African art ecosystem by providing essential resources to early/mid-career practitioners. At The Drill, we value care and rest above all else, and we are always open to collaborations with like-minded organizations and individuals. Join us on our journey to create a stronger, more resilient art community
