The pandemic has put many people in a place where they have time to breathe and reflect on the core of their being. There are those making the best of the sit at home. There are now virtual festivals, concerts, hashtag challenges and many other things to keep Nigerian creative spaces growing. And one could say Social Media has never seen this kind of growth in a while.

Many creative experts are using the chance to stay at the front of their game and teach as much people as they can.
