Art for Youth London was established in 1988 by Diana Brooks MBE as a platform for emerging artists and a fundraising exhibition in support of the UK charity, UK Youth. 

2025 marks the 37th anniversary of this annual art exhibition, which has raised over £2 million to date, enabling UK Youth to support a network of over 8,000 youth organisations and national partners, collectively reaching 5.3 million young people, many of whom are living in deprived areas or facing huge personal barriers. Purchasing a work of art, attending our event or making a donation will support artists and vulnerable young people here in the UK.

In 2024 Art For Youth raised £104,000 net during the first week of November, with a wonderfully busy atmosphere and the gallery filled with an amazing variety of artwork from over 120 emerging and established artists. This year we return again to the Mall Galleries on 4-7 November.
