The Federal Palace Hotel & Casino, in a landmark collaboration with Sterling Bank Plc and its Tourism and Creative Art Business, Torrista, successfully hosted the Uncover Naija Arts Exhibition, with the theme “Timeless Voices.” The exhibition, hosted at the iconic hotel, marked a significant milestone in the shared commitment of both brands to promoting Nigeria’s rich arts, culture, and tourism sectors.

The event brought together a curated selection of Nigeria’s most promising and young artists, whose works resonated with the theme of celebrating heritage and cultural narratives. The exhibition, which showcased diverse artistic expressions, reinforced the role of the arts as a cornerstone of national identity and a key driver of the tourism economy.

A flagship initiative, Torrista, Sterling Bank Plc’s tourism marketplace, has consistently demonstrated its commitment to building Nigeria’s tourism ecosystem by creating platforms that spotlight local and international destinations, culture, and experiences. This partnership with Federal Palace Hotel & Casino is a natural extension of that vision, blending luxury hospitality with cultural promotion.

“Our hotel has been a meeting point for leaders, creatives, and innovators for decades. This event reminds us that when the private sector, cultural ambassadors, and financial partners come together, we can build bridges that go beyond businesses that enrich our society, our economy, and our shared humanity,” said Mr Oladimeji Oladipo, the Managing Director of Federal Palace Hotel & Casino. According to the Marketing Manager, Nathaniel Ligbago, “The success of the Uncover Naija Arts Exhibition positions our new brand as an iconic and timeless luxury destination.”
Mrs Abiola Adelana, the Head Tourism and Creative Art Business, Sterling Bank Plc, added, “Our collaboration with Federal Palace Hotel & Casino for the Uncover Naija Arts Exhibition aligns perfectly with our mission to build a sustainable tourism ecosystem. By championing initiatives like this, we not only empower local artists but also create an engaging and authentic experience that showcases the richness of Nigeria to the world. This is what we strive for with Torrista and all our tourism-focused efforts.”

The overwhelming attendance and positive feedback from attendees, artists, and media alike underscore the demand for such high-quality cultural events. The Federal Palace Hotel & Casino looks forward to continuing this strategic partnership with Sterling Bank and Torrista to create more unforgettable experiences that blend luxury, culture, and entertainment.
