Arts today stands at a point where upcoming artists have very limited avenues to be heard and creativity is seen as exclusive to the artists. When in reality everyone weaves through life creatively finding their own and art is only a reflection of life . ART is around us and we are all artists,in our own way . The mission is to Engage society through the arts, Educate audiences about creativity and arts and finally to Express one’s own self distinctively through the arts. We at Friends of ART want to create a programs and platforms for artists through which they can showcase their work, interact with audience, generate funds for new projects, be mentored by established artists and bridge the understanding of arts and artistic view points to general audiences
