THE ASSOCIATION OF MULTINATIONAL PERFORMING ARTISTES ( A.M.P.A )
“Vision to Reality”

The association of multinational Performing Artistes (A.M.P.A) was founded in late 2007 by some professional artistes in the U.K with the sole purpose of promoting the Black Art industry in the Diaspora. As you may be aware, Blacks have been quite marginalised in the film and other theatrical entertainment /industry in the western world.

The association has to its credit many Stage Performances, Feature Films, home videos, Soundtracks, a Dance Troupe and many more Theatrical Entertainments.
