About

PSA was born during the 2020 lockdown, starting of as a way to motivate young learners to create art and distract from the challenges of lockdown. The idea was to utilise a mobile friendly digital platform where creative art competitions could be run, giving youth a voice.

PSA focuses on driving projects which combine creativity, social themes and injustices with technology. We also use art as a tool to uplift communities and promote mental wellbeing amongst the young people. We recognise the role that art plays in healing, self-esteem development and creative thinking skills.

We are committed to developing a community of students who are driven and take charge of their futures, despite the challenges that they may face. To achieve this, PSA offers a mentorship programme for competition winners. Students are linked to creative people in the industry to get guidance on artistic career paths and how to overcome challenges young artists experience. We are grateful to have positively impacted the lives of many students, simply through art. We hope to continue providing the youth with mentorship, art supplies, valuable life skills and creative skills that are essential for societies.
