About Us
We are a creative studio, social enterprise, and foundation founded by women migrants in Warsaw.
Our journey began in 2021 with the idea of building a community of artisans, artists, and designers in the city. Most of us were forced to leave our home countries and start over in a new place.
Our space brings together art, mutual support, and creative entrepreneurship. We believe that creativity not only inspires — it has the power to transform lives.
Mission
Fundacja ARTel is about inspiration, resilience, freedom of expression, and the power of community.
We aim to provide access to the resources, infrastructure, and information that artisans and makers need to grow and realize their creative projects.
Our workshop is dedicated to creating a supportive and inspiring environment where creatives can develop their skills, collaborate with others, and expand their opportunities.
We strive to be a bridge between cultures and to promote cultural diversity.
