Delhi Street Art is an initiative to promote public art of young artists. These public art installations either already are or have the potential to become a part of the city's heritage and creative culture. We welcome contributions from fellow artists - both visual as well as descriptive to enrich this shared experience.

Yogesh Saini, the founder of DSA is a creative entrepreneur with passionate interest in art, photography, design, writing and other similar endeavors. He is an avid travel and nature photographer, blogger and digital artist. Most recently he has published several travel stories with The Conde Nast Travel magazine. An engineer from Delhi, he also has an MBA degree from the US. He has lived overseas for more than 20 years and worked with Fortune 500 companies as well as launched startups in the US and India. Since 2013 he has made Delhi his home again and hence felt a strong urge to so something special for the city where he grew up and to make it more liveable and friendly.

Artists who are part of Delhi Street Art come from all walks of life - professional and amateur artists, architects, designers, photographers, engineers, social workers, corporate professionals, doctors, home makers and others. Each one shares one common trait - a passion for art and creativity. Over 150 artists are part of the DSA team and have helped us transform several public spaces within Delhi NCR and other cities.

A few of our notable initiatives include:
- Paiting all garbage bins of Lodi Gardens
- Painting and restoring the façade of all Shankar Market buildings
- Cleaning and painting art murals at Nehru Place, Janak Puri and other locations
- Painting an entire flyover in Ahmedabad Gujarat
- Creating India cultural murals along the 1.2 KM long walls of National Bal Bhavan
