Art Splash Studio, a new form of social entertainment has debuted in Abuja, the nation’s capital.

Art Splash Studio is a virtual art studio offering a social art experience through a “Paint Nite” painting classes hosted at different venues in Abuja.

According to the founder, Crystal Ikanih-Musa, during the session, you paint, eat and sip on cocktails while you create. This is the ultimate happy hour combination. No experience is necessary. Professional artist serve as instructors who guide you through painting your very own work of art. Each week you get the opportunity to paint one of our original paintings from our library. At the end of the night you leave with your very own creation. We also host private parties, birthday parties, and corporate team building events.

Crystal Ikanih-Musa is a Nigerian born and raised in the United States. After finishing law school and taking the bar exam three years ago she packed her bags and moved to Nigeria and has been living in Abuja ever since.

Looking for a new form of entertainment is what inspired her to start Art Splash Studio.

“I was bored with doing the same things each weekend. Either you go clubbing or go to a restaurant to eat. Those are the only two options.”

On a trip back to the US her friends told her about a new form of entertainment where you paint and sip on wine. After a bit of research she thought this was a great idea to implement back in Nigeria to fill the entertainment void.

”In the future we would like to scale up and bring this social art experience to as many Nigerians as possible,” she added.

Houthis Claim Attack on Central Israel in Response to Gaza ‘Massacres’

The ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas has taken a concerning regional turn as the Houthi rebels in Yemen claimed responsibility for an attack on central Israel. The group announced this as part of their escalating response to what they describe as "massacres" in Gaza amid the Israeli military’s operations in the strip. Details of the Attack The Houthis, a Shiite militant group with ties to Iran, declared that they launched missile and drone strikes targeting Israel. While the exact impact of these attacks remains unclear, reports suggest that Israel’s defense systems intercepted several threats over its airspace. This marks a significant escalation as the Houthis widen their involvement in the conflict beyond their typical operations within Yemen and neighboring Saudi Arabia.

Fall of Assad is a Blow to Russia's Prestige

The potential fall of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, a long-standing ally of Russia, would mark a turning point in Moscow’s global influence, particularly in the Middle East. Steve Rosenberg’s analysis underscores the profound implications for Russia, which has invested heavily—both militarily and politically—in ensuring Assad’s survival over the past decade. This article delves into why Assad’s downfall would strike at the core of Russian prestige and what it could mean for the broader geopolitical landscape. Russia's Strategic Commitment to Syria Since the outbreak of the Syrian civil war in 2011, Russia has been a staunch supporter of Assad's regime.

This intervention solidified Russia's role as a key power broker in the Middle East and demonstrated its willingness to project military power far beyond its borders. Syria is not just an ally for Russia; it is a...
