Some places are chosen. Some places choose you. ❤️
A while ago, one of our regulars asked Upma,
“Where are you opening next?”
She smiled and said,
“Wherever God takes us.”
At the time, it was just an answer.
Today, it feels like the universe had already written the next chapter.
For the last 3.5 years, we’ve believed in one thing:
What’s truly meant for you will always find its way when the time is right.
When we signed the lease for our tiny 500 sq. ft. space on Baner–Pashan Link Road, someone told us,
“Yahan toh kutta bhi nahi aayega. Art Café? Have a backup plan.”
Those words came from the previous tenant—an experienced café owner with a successful chain of cafes in Pune.
We smiled.
Because the day we chose to become artists, we chose passion over certainty. There was never a backup plan.
Artizen wasn’t built on certainty.
It was built on faith, passion, and the dream of making art accessible to everyone.
And then…
Pune happened. ❤️
You welcomed us with open arms.
Over 1,00,000 people have painted at Artizen. Every canvas, every celebration, every conversation has shaped who we are.
From one tiny café in Baner to Kalyani Nagar, every milestone has been possible because you believed in us before the world did.
A few months ago, life led us to a beautiful 100-year-old Portuguese home in Goa.
The moment we stepped inside…
It felt like home.
What followed were months of documentation, approvals, paperwork, waiting, and quietly protecting this dream until everything finally fell into place.
And today…
We finally get to say it.
We said YES.
Yes to Goa. 🌴
Yes to a new beginning.
Yes to the beautiful susegad way of life.
Yes to building another Artizen—filled with art, coffee, conversations, and community.
Pune, because of your love…
Artizen is coming to Goa. ❤️
We’re taking a piece of Pune with us.
Thank you for believing in us from day one.
Goa, we’ll see you soon. 🌊✨
