The first thing to be taken when people, society, or a nation is suppressed by another is ART. They are robbed of their music, dance, clothing, language, tribalism, and other such aspects of culture. This is how people stay suppressed.

We have a significant mission: to reintroduce art into our societies so people can truly understand, acknowledge, and appreciate the value it brings to both communities and culture. Without art, we lose a profound part of our humanity.

Unfortunately, art has often been mainstreamed into an inaccessible and exclusive sphere, seen as an elitist symbol wrapped in bureaucracy and out of reach for many. We want to change this.

AYG is a space dedicated to showcasing talented artists who, due to prejudice, lack of resources, or other barriers, often struggle to access traditional art spaces and gain the recognition they deserve. As a culture, we are missing out on their voices and perspectives because of these systemic obstacles. We want to change this.

Every art exhibition held at AYG features individuals or collectives from underrepresented and minority groups—those who are often overlooked. We are committed to amplifying their voices and giving them the platform they deserve.

At AYG, every artist is valued, deserving, and worthy of being seen, heard, and understood. We are here to make that possible.
