The gallery is open 4-8 PM. Come early to see the art and meet Abdoulaye.

Abdoulaye Conde is a self-taught visual artist and musician from Conakry, Guinea, known for his vibrant and culturally rich artwork. His signature style, "Gnabassan," blends elements of diversity and tradition, reflecting his Malinke heritage and experiences across cultures. Gnabassan represents the strength and beauty created through togetherness and is depicted in his work. His original paintings and murals can be found throughout Conakry and other cities around the world - now is the time to be a collector.

Abdoulaye is also a skilled multi-instrumentalist, playing the kora, guitar and djembe – writing and producing songs that celebrate resilience, hope, joy and the power of unity. He will be preforming two seated and times performances in a small, intimate setting.

Seating is limited. Please RSVP!
