Kairos is committed to ecologically resilient, locally inspired, imaginative futures allowing communities to build their own aesthetics and stories of the worlds they want to live in. We facilitate art outside of traditional gallery formats, bringing audiences to new and unexpected places, enabling in-depth explorations of local challenges and demonstrating how art can act as a catalyst for change.

The Kairos Atelier, located in the Industrial Area of Nairobi, is currently supporting the talent development of local youth through workshops, and space to develop their work.

We have provided over 50 artists, designers, and scientists opportunities to explore local futures, experiment with sustainable material practices, and showcase the richness of local cultures.

Over 9000 people engaged with local imaginative futures, in art, design and performative installations across three geographic contexts.

51 local artists were impacted in creative development and mentoring to develop their projects.

15 community partnerships in Kenya and the US.
