The YAF Visual Arts Program was created to spotlight young painters, photographers, and creators.
We provide online and in-person platforms for youth artwork to be exhibited professionally — connecting young artists to the wider world.
If you’re under 18 (or up to 25 as an Ambassador), you can submit your work to be featured on YAF’s website and social media channels.

YAF partners with galleries and cultural centers to give young artists the chance to exhibit professionally.
Past exhibitions include the NOHO Art Gallery and Rivington Street Gallery in New York City.
Each year, outstanding youth submissions are featured in YAF’s Young Visionaries online exhibition.
