The story behind ArtDep
ArtDep was founded by Kristina and Sonya - two co-founders who deeply missed art in their everyday lives and felt that the UAE needed more of it. They believed art should not be something distant or intimidating, but something present, inspiring, and accessible to everyone.
Kristina previously worked in the film industry, while Sonya built her career in marketing. Combining storytelling and strategy, they created ArtDep to bring art into people’s lives in a meaningful and engaging way.
Today, we organize weekly events for curious minds as well as tailor-made cultural projects for companies.
We work with a professional team of lecturers who share our passion for making art clear, inspiring, and accessible.
