For the past 3 years, Sao & The Muse has redefined the way we experience art. We have all had our Instagrammable moments with the gorgeous installations and gotten the art fixes we never knew we needed. 

Recently, Sao & The Muse switched things up. The theme was: The Art of Music and the focus was solely on the living legend, Lemi Ghariokwu. If you don’t know Lemi, chances are you know his work. The iconic artist is the man responsible for over 2000 album covers including 26 of Fela’s legendary albums. Some of these masterpieces created for artists like Onyeka Onwenu, Orist Wiliki, Raskimo, Alex Zitto, and Evi Edna Ogholi are now on display at Sao Café in Lekki phase 1.

In comes Sao & The Muse a two-day creative showcase targeted at working with intriguing aspiring creatives in the industry and giving them the opportunity to connect with known artists to give an all-round eclectic experience.
