ArtDey is a Lagos-based online marketplace curating high-quality art from diverse African talents. Going beyond commerce, we propel African art onto the global stage, ensuring sustainable income for our esteemed artists.
- This isn't your typical "creative job." This is your chance to build something from the ground up with one of Lagos's most exciting online art galleries.
- artdey is redefining how African art reaches the world. Founded in 2020, we've grown from 3 artists to 50+ phenomenal creators from Nigeria and Ghana. Our work has been featured on Apple TV's "Truth Be Told" and Peacock's "Bel-Air." We've sold hundreds of pieces to collectors globally. We run pop-ups that bring art to unexpected places; bars, public spaces, anywhere people gather, because we believe everyone can own original African art.
- Now we need someone to help us scale—someone creative, scrappy, and ready to wear multiple hats.
