1-54 renews its membership offer for this year with new exciting opportunities for our Friends! Check here below our latest Friendship packages.
BECOME A FRIEND
1-54 Friends is especially designed for art lovers and corporations looking to gain deeper insight into the development of the diverse art scenes and art market related to contemporary African and diasporan art. The membership scheme intends to connect 1-54 Friends within a dynamic network focused on contemporary art from Africa and its diaspora, offering opportunities for them to get involved in the conversation and attend exclusively curated events with like-minded individuals and in the company of specialists and artists.
Joining 1-54 Friends also helps to support the international growth of 1-54, which has quickly become the world’s leading art fair dedicated to showcasing contemporary art from Africa and its diaspora.
If you are interested in becoming a 1-54 Friend, please contact vip@1-54.com or visit the dedicated pag to register your interest online here.
