About USAIY Art Circle
A Pan-African initiative dedicated to empowering African artists through visibility, community, and opportunity.
Who We Are
USAIY Art Circle is a social impact initiative created by USAIY Art Circle. We are a digital gallery and auction platform built specifically for African artists and artists of African origin.
Our mission is simple: to give African creatives a space to showcase their talent, connect with collectors, and participate in monthly digital auctions that celebrate African artistry.
Built in Africa, for Africa—and shared with the world.

We exist to transform how African art is discovered, valued, and shared.

Why It's Under USAIY
USAIY Art Circle is not a separate company—it's a core initiative operating under USAIY Art Circle. This structure allows us to:
- Maintain focus on social impact rather than pure profit
- Leverage USAIY's resources and technology infrastructure
- Align tech, culture, and community under one vision
- Keep operational costs low to benefit artists directly
There's no separate CAC entity—USAIY Art Circle operates as a social impact arm of USAIY Art Circle, ensuring that our resources go directly to supporting artists rather than bureaucratic overhead.
Our Vision for the Future
We're just getting started. Our roadmap includes expanding into more events, global exposure opportunities, partnerships with galleries and institutions, artist residencies, and much more.
We envision a future where African art is celebrated globally, where every talented African artist has the opportunity to thrive, and where collectors worldwide can easily discover and support African creativity.
