About NextGen Palette

Empowering One Artist at a TIme

NextGen Palette was born out of a simple but powerful idea: to create a space where young, underrepresented artists could showcase their creativity without the barriers that often come with traditional platforms. After seeing firsthand the challenges young artists face—whether it’s lack of exposure, limited resources, or social media obstacles—we knew there was a need for a marketplace that prioritized inclusivity and fairness. NextGen Palette isn’t just a platform; it’s a movement to support, celebrate, and elevate different voices in the art world.

Meet Our Founder

NextGen Palette was founded by Arjun Virmani, a high schooler who is passionate about both business and art. Recognizing the challenges young artists face, he created this platform to combine these passions and provide opportunities for talented creators to thrive. He is committed to building a space where everyone can shine.
