Mind of the Masters, in collaboration with the West African Specialty Coffee Association (WASCA) and NK Art Space, is hosting an art exhibition titled 'The Spirit of Coffee' in Lagos, Nigeria. Running from November 29 to December 12, 2025, at The Spotlight Hub in Victoria Island, the exhibition features 20 artworks curated by Mind of the Masters and NK Art Space, created by professional artist Lenrie Preks. Works such as 'The Spirit of Coffee,' 'Coffee Blitz,' and 'Flavour of Coffee' explore coffee culture through portraiture and ritualistic themes, using acrylic on canvas and other media.
The exhibition matters because it aims to bridge the gap between Africa's rich coffee heritage and its untapped economic potential, particularly in Nigeria. By combining art with coffee culture, the organizers seek to raise awareness about coffee's health benefits and economic opportunities, positioning African coffee on the global stage. The event highlights the role of creative expression in promoting sustainable practices and community engagement within the coffee industry.
