When creating BAYA, there were a lot of things we wanted to focus on in the long run - but the main reason we created this collective was due to this void we felt - this blank space - within our communities, cities, our country… 

Especially when it involves the opportunities people are given when it comes to sharing the thing they’re passionate about: their craft, their art, their voice,… There is so much talent that is going unnoticed, unappreciated - whether that’s because the opportunities are minimal & not easily accessible or whether there is a need for support, confidence or simply that last little push in the right direction. 

We’re one year further in our BAYA Collective journey and we’ve had the opportunity to discover many talented individuals who joined us in our journey. The ones we’ve built events with, collaborated with, the ones who were there to capture our most valuable moments during our gatherings. Or to put it simply: the ones we provided with a platform - a safe space to share and further develop their talent, their skills.
