Urban Village Art Center is a structural prototype that aims to introduce art making as a process of identity building. As a non-profit multi-functional organization, Urban Village Art Center serves as a catalyst for today and tomorrow’s creative voices, providing space and opportunities that amplify creativity. Dedicated to the local village residents, it's devoted to create a sense of community through art making and preserve identities associated with urban village. As a platform, Urban Village Art Center both enpowers the local indwellers and opens up to the bigger public by bringing concern over contemporary topics such as urban-rural relationship and immigration.
