“FRENS” Community
We believe that art has the power to connect and transform. Our “FRENS” community is an energetic, diverse group that welcomes individuals from all walks of life. Whether you’re a passionate artist, a curious volunteer, or someone who just loves creative expression.
What We Do:
We host free events and workshops designed to make art more accessible to everyone. From young people seeking a space to express themselves, to corporate employees exploring new ways to foster creativity, to communities in other countries building cultural connections—our mission is to make art a bridge between people and ideas.
Who We Are:
Our community thrives through collaboration, with volunteers, partner organisations, social institutions, and friends all coming together to support a shared goal. We believe art should be available to anyone, regardless of experience or background.
Why Join Us:
Whether you’re looking to connect with like-minded individuals, explore the therapeutic and self-development benefits of art, or simply step into a warm and supportive environment. We create a space where art is for everyone, especially for those who may not feel “qualified” to attend traditional art events. Here, everyone’s a creator.
JOIN OUR “FRENS” WHATSAPP COMMUNITY!
An easy way to stay updated and get involved with our latest projects. We post regular updates, event invitations, and volunteer opportunities as they arise.
