Village by Tikera is Abuja's premier cultural and creative eco-campus, located at Plot 888 Atiku Abubakar Way within the Idu Industrial Area. Founded by creative entrepreneur and photographer Bayo Omoboriowo under Tikera Africa, this beautiful destination is an art lover's delight. It features a unique infrastructure built largely from reclaimed aircraft parts, shipping containers, and train components. The hub officially serves as the home of the Scrap Art Museum and prominently features "Reclaimed Beauty: A Dialogue Between Continents," a groundbreaking solo exhibition by internationally acclaimed metal sculptor Dotun Popoola.
Why You Should Visit
It's a place to experience a mesmerizing blend of fine art, environmental sustainability, and futuristic African architecture that you cannot find anywhere else in the city. Walking through the campus challenges your perception of waste as you witness massive, larger-than-life sculptures valued up to ₦400 million forged entirely from discarded scrap metal and industrial materials. Beyond the art, the venue functions as an incredibly photogenic, "Instagrammable" community oasis where you can connect with local creatives, unwind to good music, and appreciate the immense potential of Africa's creative economy.
