As a not-for-profit organisation, Sanaa Ink through Sanaa: A better world through creativity, promote the power of art and creativity and its capacity to bridge cultural gaps. Using street art, music, performance, workshops, visual art and story-telling, we harness the talents of Australian and international artists as cultural advocates, who encourage greater social cohesion through creative expression. Working with grassroots artists from Africa, we bring them to Australia, creating a collaborative multi-art festival platform, where they have the opportunity to collaborate with Australian based artists. Since its inception in 2017, the multi-arts festival platform has reached audiences in excess of 30,000 through its various events and initiatives. Founded by Australian Victoria Lewis, who travelled to East Africa to film a short documentary on the positive power of art back in 2015, the platform has grown into an award-winning community arts project. "SANAA" in Swahili means"art" or "work of beauty". Any profits derived from the project, go towards supporting grassroots arts initiatives in Australia and around the world.
