DAA’da Bahar

A spring evening of connection and creation

On May 31st, under the scent of pine trees and the soft light of early summer, we came together at DAA Art Residency for a special evening; DAA’da Bahar.

It was more than a celebration of the season; it was a moment to pause, to share, and to imagine what is possible when people meet around art, nature, and generosity.

With the support of Chefs Collective, the evening unfolded gently — a gathering of friends, artists, and supporters who believe, like we do, that creativity flourishes through community.

Guests met our resident artists, heard stories of their practices, and glimpsed the evolving path of DAA — a place that continues to grow through collective imagination.
As conversations flowed and the air filled with music, food, and laughter, the night became a living reflection of what we hope to nurture here: connection as a form of art.

Those who joined us contributed not only to this event, but also to the future projects of the artists we dream of welcoming in the years to come.
Your presence, your curiosity, and your support make DAA possible — thank you for being part of our journey.

Here’s to spring — and to everything that grows when we come together.

Thank you for being with us to all of our friends, collaborators, supporters, artists and curious minds who love to follow arts.
