The aim of The Blue Lotus Foundation is to support the new and the unusual. We are living through extraordinary times. Now, more than ever we need to nurture community, creative endeavours, and cultural events. We believe in the importance of the artist in shaping our awareness at a visionary as well as imaginative level, and in what it means to bring art and healing together in synthesis. As well as hosting exhibitions, we are also an open venue for small groups to meet and participate in film screenings, poetry readings and workshops. For the past ten years we have successfully held a variety of events presented by many wonderful artists. In addition we support authors to publish their first writings, such as Bika Reed, Aidan A. Dunn, Jay Ramsey, Genie Portezky-Lee and many more.
