Maldives : The National Art Gallery
The National Art Gallery was established in 1999 by the Government of Maldives to source and collect Maldivian art of both past and present with a view to forming a permanent collection, organize displays and exhibitions of both Maldivian and international art on a regular basis, and provide opportunities for Maldivian artists to develop and excel in their professions, through facilitating educational opportunities and networking.
The Gallery is presently collecting work from both Maldivian and international artists and assisting in the professional development of visual artists through holding educational and promotional events such as presentations and workshops.
