The Anuwai Life Village
Our passion lies within the old and traditional general phrase “It takes a village to raise a child”. As we work with young adults, ages 18-24, we recognize that they need transitional support to help them navigate in an industry that can sometimes appear untrustworthy, dangerous, and financially unstable in the beginning. Therefore, Anuwai Life Inc. is on a mission to develop an inclusive creative residential community where artistic visions come alive for emerging artists.
