Albay Arts Foundation Inc. (AAFI, stylized as AAF) began as an aspiration to provide Albay, the Bicol region, and the national and global communities with which it will interact additional venue to explore the capabilities and possibilities of the arts help build better societies. Envisioned by friends across three continents and for over five years, AAF had quickly turned to reality once the commonalities in individual goals had been aligned. To date, our journey in time can be illustrated below:\
Goal 1: Build a physical art center with permanent and temporary exhibition of visual arts, facilities for the performing arts, and a fully operational library.
Goal 2: Involve participation of the local community, especially the host municipality and barangay.
Goal 3: Initiate productive and mutually beneficial collaboration with educational, cultural, and other relevant institutions in the region and beyond.
Goal 4: Develop and implement a funding mechanism and strategy to fully operationalize the art center.
