Our Vision & Mission
Collective 919​
​
At Collective 919, we believe in artists curating for artists. Our vision is to build a creative space where artists take the lead—authentically, collaboratively, and beyond traditional boundaries. We aim to foster an inclusive and experimental environment where diverse voices connect, inspire, and redefine the way art is experienced.
​
Our mission is to create exhibitions that empower creators to express their work with integrity and freedom. By supporting independent artists, we offer opportunities for self-representation, Creative Exploration of Diverse Arts, and collective engagement.
​
Through artist-led exhibitions, experimental formats, and interdisciplinary collaborations, we challenge hierarchical structures and ignite new conversations within contemporary art.
