About PBAG

Nurturing talent. Creating art. Transforming communities.

PBAG (Peers Best Art Group) is a community-based arts organisation founded on 23rd August 2011 by like-minded young artists from Limuru, Kenya, under the leadership of Boni Kanyuira — the brainchild behind its formation.

Act I · Who we are

From a youth group to a consortium

PBAG was established to bring young people together around a common purpose: identifying, nurturing, developing and showcasing artistic talent, while using the arts to address real issues affecting society. From its inception, PBAG embraced Theatre for Community Development as a tool for entertainment, education, community engagement, awareness creation and social transformation.

Over the years PBAG has grown into a broader artistic consortium bringing different creative entities together under one vision. Our work spans theatre and other creative disciplines — giving artists room to develop their skills, collaborate, create meaningful work and contribute to the cultural and social development of their communities.
