About

Nairobi Now is a space where various activities and events taking place in and around Nairobi are posted to create awareness among active seekers about the local arts and culture scene.

This blog is regularly maintained by a core group of administrators and contributors. Reader participation is encouraged in order to make this the most comprehensive source of its kind. However, the administrators reserve the right to remove irrelevant, erroneous and offensive postings as they see fit. Nairobi Now is not a place to post personal journal entries or to advertise private parties and functions. It is also not a place for commercial advertisement of local businesses.

For your convenience, events have been categorized by type. To supplement the contents of the site, we have included links to other relevant websites.

We look forward to receiving your feedback and, of course, any additional event information you may have. Just email them to us at nairobinow [at] gmail.com

Ghandi said, albeit in a different context, that “no culture can live if it attempts to be exclusive.” So keep on enjoying, expanding – and sharing with others – the Nairobi cultural scene.

    I am an 18 year old budding socio-political poet. I have read my poetry numerous times at the Nakumatt Junction Poetry night and recieved excellent reviews from the audience.

    Could you consider giving me an opportunity at some of your forums? You sure will not regret.

      looking for serious sponsors for a show on classical music on tv already on GBS, anyone interested in the adverts done while the program is showing or a clothing line, even an five star hotel and such like, will have a great opportunity in seeing your product looked at from a classical point.
      any classical music lovers out there?

He has a real talent for artwork but my house is soon turning into a Museum of art, lol so how can I get him to bring some of his work for exposure?

    Autism Awareness Kenya will be showing the movie Horseboy on Saturday, Feb. 4th from 1:30-5:00 pm. The movie will start promptly at 2 pm and tea/discussion will follow the movie. There is NO childcare provided and this is NOT a child’s film. The cost is 200 KES/person. It will be shown at The Austin Room, Braeburn Theatres, Braeburn Primary School. Take bus/mat 46 to Kawangware and alight at Braeburn Primary School.

    This is a wonderful movie that is sure to have a lively discussion to follow!

    “The Horse Boy does more than chronicle Rowan and his parents’ journey across the vast, wild landscape of Mongolia. It delves into the strange world of autism itself, the relationship between humans and animals and between different cultures and different ways of being (autistic vs. normal, or “neuro-typical”), and the nature of healing. Audiences hear the varied theories on autism from the experts in the field, well-known researchers of autism such as Dr. Simon Baron-Cohen of Cambridge University; Dr. Temple Grandin, recovered autist and professor of animal behavior at Colorado State University; and anthropologist and researcher Roy Richard Grinker of George Washington University. But above all, The Horse Boy tells the story of a couple that goes to the end of the earth to find a way into their son’s life.”

    PLEASE DO NOT respond to this email. There are no advance tickets, it is first come first serve, so come early!

    Thanks!
