Art for Heart aims to close art accessibility gaps across communities nationwide by combating financial and resource inequities for rising artists while providing them with opportunities to learn and apply art skills in the context of the social movements around us. We redefine the playing field in the arts industry by producing digital art magazines focused on social change, running monthly Art Markets for undergraduate artists, and fundraising to provide arts education for students who do not have access to it. With each action we do, we give back to the professional artist community and continue to advocate for proper compensation for creatives. "We don't want underrepresented artists to have to scrap just to get a seat at the table. We want to build more tables to diversify income streams for artists and eliminate inequality in resources, exposure, and initial financial standing. One day the arts industry will contain a diverse palette of talent from across the globe and the words starving artist will not exist." -- Yifei Gao, CEO & Founder
