Why Our Work Matters
The Problem: Local Talent is Overlooked
The demand for South Asian-inspired art is growing—but too often, the creators behind these works are not from the community, or the products are imported. A quick search on Etsy or Amazon reveals countless yantras, mandalas, and lotus designs being sold to American buyers—but many sellers are neither from South Asia nor the U.S. This is a market that local artists should own.
Barriers for South Asian Artists
Many talented artists in our community face challenges:
- Language & cultural barriers make it hard to access business opportunities.
- Lack of marketing knowledge keeps artists from reaching buyers.
- Limited resources prevent them from scaling their craft into sustainable income.
Our Solution
Lotus Arts Center bridges these gaps by:
✅ Providing skill development in traditional and digital art.
✅ Offering business training to help artists sell their work.
✅ Creating a supportive community where artists can grow together.
