A VISIT TO RED DOOR GALLERY

Have you ever been so bored on a saturday in lagos city you're forced to do something fun? The irony right? But that has been my reality in this boisterous city of Lagos. The Fun is out there and all i have to do is get my self out and into it. That is how this particular day in December of 2021 went. It turned out to be so much fun i wonder why it felt like such a burden at first.

Instinctively, my go-to place to escape boredom-Ville has always been to find something creatively exciting around me and get lost in it. The RED Door Gallery is just a few blocks away from where i live. I pass it on my way to work everyday and just always wonder when I'll find the time to peep in..... one day soon I'll say... oh well. i finally went in.

On display that day was the most vibrant collection of  knuckle-heads I've ever seen, cartoon-like big-headed monsters that caught my color-loving side. I was instantly pulled to it. The gurgled-eyes and larger than life depictions took me back to my Anime loving days. 

I cannot recall the name of the artist for the life of me. My aim however is to journal and share my experience from that day. Getting lost in this art and space was all the Serotonin i did not realize i needed for that day. I am glad i went. Anything is better than having a dampened mood all day.

BLOGBUZZ: McRABBIT CLOTHING COMING TO NIGERIA SOON

The McRabbit brand originated from the East of England, United Kingdom.  The Norwich, England hailed fashion brand founded since 2010, launched and started trading on the 2nd of February, 2011 which marked the Chinese New Year termed "Year of the Rabbit".

The McRabbit brand was inspired by the Rabbits of the city of Norwich, which were predominantly seen during the sunny days hopping around the carefully grazed green lawn of the beautiful city. The little Rabbits were so cute, free and full of life reflecting "The Real Good Life".

The Rabbit was hereby dressed to reflect the style of an Urban Youth, and to cap its uniqueness and suave a royal Arabian hat was put at the top of its head. Team McRabbit characterized the Rabbit by giving him its own identity, hence the name "Mr McRabbit".

Today, McRabbit is a registered trademark, trading in over 3 continents and several cities around the world. The fast growing brand has since then not relented in bringing out one of the most carefully cut apparels that money can buy.

McRabbit Brand: McRabbit, a Habbit, Grabbit!!! Since 2010.

BLOGBUZZ: THE SICKLE CELL AID FOUNDATION STARTS IT’S 'KNOW YOUR GENOTYPE' CAMPAIGN

This Saturday, the Sickle Cell Aid Foundation (SCAF) will start it's Know Your Genotype (KYG) campaign in the Bwari Area Council of Abuja. The first of a free genotype testing campaign across the area councils of Abuja FCT.

The Sickle Cell Aid Foundation, a registered Non-Governmental Organization, founded June 2010, aims at creating awareness of the Sickle Cell disease, the effect it has on our society, developing measures aimed at limiting and possibly eradicating the complications of this condition.

In line with these aims, SCAF carried out a survey across the whole of Abuja to find out how many people actually know their genotype, which revealed that approximately 25% of persons resident in the F.C.T have never heard of Sickle Cell Anaemia and 46.5% do not know their genotype. 

To further prevent further sickle cell patients being borninto this world, SCAF decided it was very necessary to embark on a free genotype testing campaign across Abuja to enlighten and educate the residents of Abuja.

Each month will focus on one area council. For the month of May, the focus will be Bwari Area Council, on the 19th -20th, this weekend. Next up will be Abuja Municipal Area Council in June. Stay Tuned.
