Built like a gallery, lived like a conversation.

Nommo House takes its name from Nommo —a concept from Dogon cosmology meaning the generative power of the spoken word, the ability to give form to ideas.

Founded in Washington, DC, Nommo House is a gallery and gathering space dedicated to the collective practice of art, design, and dialogue.

We believe creativity is a shared language; one that builds connection, archives experience, and invites new ways of seeing.

Nommo House hosts exhibitions, studio activations, and community-driven programs that bring artists, thinkers, and audiences together.

Our aim is simple: to create space where ideas move freely — from concept to form, from local to global, from individual to collective.
