ACB is a competition themed around the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), seeking to uncover artistic talent within universities in Africa.
By giving participants a platform to express themselves through art forms such as dance, music, spoken word and more, ACB is looking to ignite creative problem-solving around the SDGs, inspiring young people to be agents of positive change on stage and beyond.
The winner of ACB Season 6 will walk away with $2 000 (a cash prize of $1 500 and a $500 scholarship), a fully paid trip to London, and the Anthony Athaide trophy for their university.
Application process
To join the competition, applicants must fill out the audition form and attach a two- to three-minute video showcasing their performance, just as they would in front of a live audience.
