MuYI is dedicated to promoting, supporting, and showcasing various forms of art, such as visual arts and performing arts. We operated by governments, non-profits, or for-profit entities, and we have a wide range of goals, such as preserving and showcasing historic art, promoting emerging artists, or providing education and training to the artist we work with.

Inspired by our vision we have develop programs that use arts as a tool for addressing social issues and promoting community development. We tap on the power of art to curry out the following activities in the community.

  1. Art therapy: Using art as a form of therapy to help individuals, especially young people, cope with stress, trauma, and other emotional challenges.
  2. Community mural projects: Bringing members of the community together to create large-scale public artworks that reflect the community’s history, values, and aspirations.
  3. Social justice workshops: Using the arts as a tool for discussing and exploring social issues such as racism, poverty, and inequality, and empowering young people to become active citizens.
  4. Job training and skills development: Offering workshops, classes, and apprenticeships in various art forms to help young people develop marketable skills and improve their employment prospects.
  5. Community engagement events: Organizing events such as festivals, parades, and fairs that bring together different members of the community, promoting social cohesion and a sense of belonging.
  6. Arts-based economic development: Using the arts as a tool for promoting small business development and tourism, by encouraging the creation of art-based products, and marketing the community as a destination for arts and culture.
  7. Online programs: Offering online classes, workshops, and other educational opportunities for youth to access and learn about the arts and cultural heritage, as well as to engage with other community members.
  8. Community film screenings: Organizing film screenings to address social issues or inspire positive actions, and also encouraging youth to participate in creating short films that reflect community’s concerns and aspirations.
