About this event

The 2nd Edition of the Nigeria Masquerade Exhibition hosted by Culturally Naija, WeLead, and SixSense Entertainment is scheduled to be held in the Houston Galleria area in recognition of Nigeria's anniversary of independence. It will be unique in nature representing key tribal groups from Nigeria.

Featured Masquerades include Egungun, Okonko, Ekpe, and Eyo. Many Nigerian societies have a rich tradition of masquerades. Masquerades are a symbol of culture and customs. They are normally portrayed in colorful robes accompanied by traditional dancers or music. The masks adorned are determined by tradition and beliefs.

Featured Local Artists include Ofilidesigns, Anjola Coker, Gbenga Ayeni, and Leo DeGreatArt.
