Baoulecore Archive Center is a dynamic initiative located in the heart of Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire, the bustling West African city and a rapidly rising innovative hub for music, fashion, and visual arts. Baoulecore Archive Center is more than just a space or record store; it's a cultural incubator dedicated to preserving and promoting the rich musical heritage of Côte d'Ivoire and beyond.
Situated in Abidjan's first women's cooperative market, our center serves as a beacon of creativity and accessibility for music enthusiasts, producers, and artists from diverse backgrounds, while also functionally serving as a cultural research lab.
With access to an in-house collection of over 1500+ vinyl records / 1000 cassettes, rare objects and artefacts, out-of-print books & zines on design and culture across Africa and the Globe, Baoulecore can offer bespoke research and consultation services.
Our ties to pioneering Ivorian creative collectives, fashion brands, recording artists and renowned local painters, photographers and sculptors makes us an indispensable multi-tentacled hub in the rocketing art scene of Abidjan.
