Discovering New Artists (DNA) is a social enterprise working on promoting education and inclusiveness by providing creative learning opportunities for children and youth irrespective of their social, gender and economic background. Using art as a medium, we aim to create awareness about social and global issues rooted in UN SDGs.
OUR PROGRAMS
DNA addresses the following problems through its programmes;
Inequality: Increasing societal inequalities among different segments.
Lack of SDGs Awareness: Lack of awareness about social and global issues through art.
Underappreciation of Arts Education: Underappreciation of the transformative power of arts in education and the role it plays in developing societies.
Associated Health Benefits: Failure to recognize the health benefits of inclusive arts education.
DNA uses modern art influences from international and Pakistani artists from various eras to bring value education and inclusion into one platform using arts and digital learning methods along with promoting solutions to SDGs through artworks made by students. It has also allowed thousands of students an opportunity to showcase their out-of-the-box thinking and creative abilities through their art to thousands of exhibition attendees locally and internationally through multiple exhibitions.
