Celebrating Art, Supporting Artists

Who are We?

We are a Dehradun-based NGO committed to celebrating and nurturing art and culture through thoughtfully designed events, engaging workshops, and continuous support for artists at all stages of their journey. By fostering creativity and building inclusive spaces for artistic expression, we strive to make art accessible and meaningful to all. Our efforts are carried out in loving memory of Mrs. Kritika Uniyal, whose deep-rooted passion for fine arts continues to inspire and guide our mission.

About Mrs. Kritika Uniyal

Mrs. Kritika Negi Uniyal was a talented artist, a quiet soul, and a deeply compassionate person. Born on November 26, 1993, in Dehradun, she pursued her passion for art with sincerity, earning a Master’s degree in Fine Arts. Her paintings reflected her sensitivity and calm perspective on life. While working in the education department, she continued nurturing her creative spirit. Kritika’s sudden passing in May 2023 left her loved ones heartbroken, but her values and vision continue to inspire. Yashkritika Foundation was founded in her memory — to carry forward the love, grace, and creativity she brought into the world.
