Association of non-aligned artists (UNU) is youth organization based in Vinca, Serbia. Our goal is to empower and promote independent art and activism in our community, and build platforms to inter-connect artists and cultural organizations in Serbia, Europe and beyond.

We were officially funded in 2014, but prior, we were acive as informal group, Roots And Sound since 2006, working with likes of with Balkan Rock Council / WIRED network, Trenchtown festival, Youth festival, Etno fest, art NGOs and artists from Serbia and Europe on cross-border mobility projects and networking.

After 2014, one of our first projects was to set up an autonomous cultural center in Vinca. In past 3 years, we launched few noticeable cultural events in our hometown, such as Mandela Poster Project exhibition, Ring the alarm music festival, Digging the roots collaboration with Museum of Belgrade and couple of art mobility projects funded by ECF. We've also worked with many institutions, NGOs, festivals, designers, street artists, and independent musicians.

So far we worked with over 100 individual artists and NGOs from Serbia, UK, France, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Albania, Romania, Bulgaria, Montenegro, Nigeria, Canada, South Africa, Netherlands, Slovenia, Greece, North Macedonia.

Besides independent arts and culture, we're also interested in grassroots activism, informal education, ecology and sustainable tourism.
