Google is celebrating Africa Day in a new fashion with 3D Art Exhibitions across Nigeria, Kenya and South Africa. Africa Day commemorates the formation of the African Union (AU) and celebrates the unification of African countries.
It is also an opportunity to showcase Africa’s rich cultural heritage through various programs and events. Google made this statement through Nigeria’s Interim Lead, Olumide Balogun, on Wednesday, 17th May 2023. However, the AU will celebrate Africa Day on the 25th of May, 2023.
Google Arts and Culture is setting up an exhibition where six new art galleries from selected countries will display artworks from their regions in Africa. In addition, YouTube is organizing the “Stories and Storytellers of Africa” Initiative as part of the celebration.
