Terra Kulture Art Gallery is a part of Terra Kulture Arts and Studios, a multifunctional cultural, educational, and recreational organization that was set up in 2003 to promote the richness and diversity of Nigerian languages, arts, and culture, by Mrs. Bolanle Austen-Peters. The organization was founded based on Mrs. Austen-Peters’ abiding passion and respect for all cultures and her observation that there were few institutions effectively supporting Nigerian culture and providing the right ambiance for Nigerians and foreigners to learn about Nigeria’s cultural and linguistic heritage.
