Underground Social is an arts and media house spotlighting a diverse set of creatives.

We provide platforms and production services to empower artists and engage audiences, with a dominant focus on emerging talent from Africa, South-West Asia, and their diasporas.

Broadly split into visual and sound arts, we drive cultural and social impact through showcases,residencies, festivals, knowledge exchange, and a bold online presence, in addition to production releases.

Our philosophy is centred around the notions of sharing and understanding, our core values reflected in the pillars we strive to build our community on: inclusivity, accessibility, sustainability,and collaboration.
