Seoul, South Korea | Peace in Action 🇰🇷

Our very own Umair Mushtaq, Core Member of the Global Citizenship and Peace Education (GCED) Youth Network, co-facilitated the 12th Youth Leadership Workshop on GCED, leading sessions in visual arts and theatre.

This year’s theme: Leveraging Media, Arts, and Socio-Emotional Learning (SEL) for Sustainable Peace.

42 youth leaders. 32 countries. One shared goal: using art for peace and global citizenship.

Art is not just aesthetic. It is a tool for change.

Proud to see Umair on this global platform, and proud of the role art continues to play in building a more peaceful, connected world.

So many colours.
So many stories.
So much talent in one space. ❤️

Still not over the energy, the artworks, the conversations, and the moments that made ArtBeat feel so special.

This wasn’t just an exhibition.
It was a whole vibe.

Public Announcement

The Little Art is transitioning Aangun Center for Learning and Culture to an independent future, with its administration now entrusted to a new management committee. From 1 May 2026, Aangun Center for Learning and Culture will operate independently, including its summer camp and wider programming.

The Little Art will remain institutionally connected only to the Aangun Early Childhood Education (ECE) school, but will no longer be involved in day-to-day operations.
This has been a thoughtful and difficult decision. Opened in April 2022, Aangun was envisioned and built by The Little Art from the ground up as a space for learning, arts, and culture, alongside the development of its Early Childhood Education school in close collaboration with the management committee. Over the years, we have invested deeply in shaping it into what it is today.

As we step away from its management, The Little Art will focus its energies on its core programmes, including ArtBeat, festivals, and the reEarth International Art Prize, while trusting the new team to take Aangun forward into its next chapter.

We move forward with deep respect for all friends who contributed in making Aangun what it has been, and great optimism for what it will become. We wish the new team strength and success, and remain connected in spirit as part of a shared commitment to arts and culture in Lahore, the vision we had for Aangun when we started.

The Little Art and Aangun both continue, onward and upward!
