Lucid Lemons is an online platform for like minded young adults to join hands and communicate about issues that are important to the younger and future generations. The platform aims to empower them to let their creative work do the talking and meet other like minded individuals that might help them progress.
On the 6th of August 2016, ‘The Lemon Curd’ is to be held at Muri Okunola Park VI. It is an open mic/jam session featuring stalls rented to young Nigerian entrepreneurs and fun activities to entertain attendees. It aims to bring people with common interests together and there is a belief that this may lead to collaborations that help our communities thrive. Check out more information here.
Of Lucid Lemon’s recent success, the platform held their first sold out event RADAR – Raising Awareness for Domestic Abuse and Rape in December 2015. It was aimed at discussing the incredibly alarming rates of abuse and rape in Nigeria. At the event, last year, representatives from the Mirabel Centre, Stand to End Rape Initiative and other special guests spoke to the audience on understanding the seriousness of the issue and how we can help as a community.
Lucid Lemons was founded in 2015 by Tomisin Akinwunmi, and has since been involved in many social projects and initiatives including the production of the ‘NEXT OF KIN’ show at the British Council during the Lagos Theatre Festival last year.
