Our Team

We are a group of youth based in Markham dedicated to bringing creativity into our communities through public art. United by a shared passion for expression, inclusion, and youth empowerment, we launched GalleryBox as a way to make art more accessible and visible in everyday spaces. From design and curation to outreach and installation, every aspect of the project is youth-driven. Our goal is to create platforms where young voices can be seen, heard, and celebrated—transforming parks, streets, and neighborhoods into spaces of inspiration and connection.
