Welcome to Share Art Front, where passion for art intersects with community, education, and innovation. At the heart of our institute lies a commitment to fostering creativity, nurturing talent, and providing a vibrant space for both emerging and established artists. Here at Share Art Front, we believe that art is not just a form of expression but a bridge that connects people, ideas, and cultures.

*Our Mission*

Our mission is to empower artists to explore their full potential and to make art accessible to everyone. We aim to create a dynamic and inclusive environment where creativity flourishes, learning never stops, and every artistic vision can find its voice.

*Our Values*

• We believe everyone can be an artist. Artist for us means “you are you, and you can express yourself through artistic forms”.
• We are dedicated to developing your creative thinking and critical thinking so that you will be enjoying self-development through self-studying.
• We prefer you enjoy exploring but not accepting, solving but not copying, creating but not reproducing.
• Let’s do the right thing at the right stage!
• To be you, to be aware of and able to express you!

*Our strategies*

• Systematic tutoring – specific methodologies instructing fundamental concepts, relevant techniques, working process to develop creating, presenting, analyzing and a variety of art forms.
• Integrated practice – reinforcing learning the generalized Art by integrating visual art, music, drama and dance.
• Society connection – encouraging students to engage with the community and draw inspiration from cultural contexts.
• Personalized development – tailoring educational experiences to fit individual needs and aspirations.

*Our team*

We bring together artists from diverse cultural, educational, and developmental backgrounds from around the world (such as OCAD and Sheridan in Canada, SAIC/CCA/SVA in the United States, UAL in the UK, Pskov Academy of Art in Russia, National University of Art in Romania, National College of Art in Pakistan, Tehran Art University in Iran, and Tsinghua Academy of Fine Arts/Xi’an Academy of Fine Arts in China, etc.). They also serve as educators and communicators. Their professional academic education not only provides them with a deep understanding of their fields but also equips them with sufficient theoretical knowledge. On this basis, all artists involved in teaching must undergo comprehensive training in educational concepts and methods at our institution before they can begin teaching, to meet the requirements of modern education. Understanding the goals and concepts of primary and secondary education and interpreting the admission requirements of post-secondary education are their mandatory courses.

*Our achievements*

Since its establishment in 2017, our institution has adhered to the principle of continuously cultivating and developing abilities, helping countless young people enhance their artistic literacy, achieve personal development goals, and consistently contribute to community development through artistic activities and outputs.
