Some years ago, artists @kris.russo and @suraia_abud met in Iwaya Community as co-artists during a community-based residency. Over several weeks of shared engagement, learning, and exchange, they developed works that were later presented at the Iwaya Community Art Festival (ICAF, Lagos), — a project of our sister organisation, @vernacularartlab .

That encounter is a reminder of what becomes possible when alternative, community-rooted spaces exist: unexpected collaborations, cross-cultural dialogue, and artistic practices grounded in lived experience. These are the kinds of encounters that shape careers, deepen understanding, and build lasting cultural bridges.

IlaBar was created to continue this legacy in Osogbo — as a living space for artists, writers, thinkers, and creatives to meet, experiment, and exchange ideas beyond conventional art structures.

Today is the final day of the IlaBar crowdfunding campaign.
Your support, no matter the amount, will help sustain this platform and ensure that such meaningful artistic encounters continue.

Please donate and share.

Some of the most beautiful moments at IlaBar happen quietly—when visitors discover the vinyl collection and spend hours flipping through album covers that hold stories, rhythms, and memories across generations.

These records are more than objects; they are part of IlaBar’s spirit — a reminder that art, music, archives, and community can live together in one space.

To keep IlaBar alive as a home for artistic exchange and cultural discovery, we are raising funds to sustain the space into 2026. Your support will help us preserve spaces where memory and creativity breathe freely.

Thank you for helping us keep the music playing.

The Post-Service: In Our Quiet Hour, I Feel I See Everything And Am in Love With the Hook Upon Which Everyone Hangs And I Know You Meant to Show the Extent to Which You Gave a Goddang You Ranged Real Hot and Real Cold but I’m Sold I Am at Home on That Range and I Do Hate to Fold Right Here at the Top of My Game When I’ve Been Trying with My Whole Heart and Soul to Stay Right Here in the Right Lane but It Can Make You Feel Over and Old (Lord, You Know It’s a Shame) When I Only Want for You to Pull Over and Hold Me Till I Can’t Remember My Own Name*
