ABOUT FRIDAY GALLERY
Friday exists to enable the discovery of rising creative voices from the Global South, curating art, objects, and editions from across South Asia, the Middle East and beyond. Our space blends an art gallery with a design concept store to create a rotating seasonal platform celebrating brown artists, designers, and artisans. Each Friday season is anchored in a rotating theme, with the art, fashion, and object curation bound together in a shared spirit. From Pakistani minimalism, to the surrealist visions of feminist Dubai photographers, to gothic brujas in Mexico, Friday celebrates the cultural voices of tomorrow.
