Our Story

Founded in 2024 in Claremont, California, the Ming Chen Art Foundation was born out of a passion for art and community. Inspired by the powerful role of art in connecting people and enriching lives, our founder Ming Chen envisioned a space where artists from all backgrounds could come together, learn, create, and inspire.

 

What began as a small initiative has grown into a vibrant foundation committed to nurturing artistic talent and making art accessible to all. Today, we continue to honor this vision by offering a range of programs that celebrate creativity and foster a dynamic community of artists and art lovers alike.
