NEWS

THE FOUNDATION

The Little Zograf Foundation was established in 2012 by Pepa Boyanova, an artist and a long-time teacher of fine arts, and Ivan Ivanov, an artist-carver, with their common aspiration to make it an instrument through which to pass on their long experience in the field of fine arts, as well as in teaching and educating children to support the development of artistic talents in young artists from Bulgaria and abroad.

MISSION

For over 12 years we have been following our mission to support the creative potential of children and to give talented young artists from Bulgaria and abroad a chance to express themselves. We believe that providing a supportive and stimulating environment for the development of artistic flairs in children is key to the development of their talent from an early age, as well as to their good professional realization later in life.

Since its inception, the Foundation’s team has been actively working to establish fine arts as a fundamental tool for cultivating important skills in children and stimulating their development.

OUR ACTIVITIES
