Where Art, Storytelling, and Strategy find their Meeting Place
Art. Strategy. Culture. Community. Connection.
Founded in 2023, Umana Yana Strategies is a creative consultancy working across art, culture, and communication. We help artists, brands, and institutions tell stories that connect people and expand culture.
“Umana Yana”
Umana Yana means “meeting place of the people” in the language of the Wai Wai, an Indigenous community from Guyana.
It is also the name of a thatched monument in the heart of Georgetown, Guyana, built as a symbol of unity and dialogue.
Our name honors that legacy. It reminds us that creativity is communal — a space where diverse voices come together to imagine what’s next.
Mission
We believe in the power of hybridity — that the most vital ideas live between creative worlds.
Our mission is to create meaningful intersections between art and audience, strategy and spirit, heritage and innovation.
Through curatorial practice, creative production, and cultural strategy, we turn ideas into experiences that shape how people see the world.
