Building the Zyp Art Gallery has been a passion project for Dr. Nhung Tran-Davies. Hank and Tillie Zyp (our namesakes) were a part of a group of families who sponsored Nhung and her family from a refugee camp after the Vietnam war. While growing up, Nhung had the privilege of seeing first-hand the important work Hank and Tillie did to help children around the world through their NGOs. She also saw how Hank used his art to help communicate the lived experiences of the peoples and communities they worked with. Zyp Art Gallery's aim is to continue the legacy of Hank and Tillie Zyp. We are a space that provides a platform that amplifies the voices of the voiceless within our community. We amplify their voices to increase awareness and empathy for those who traditionally don’t get heard. Together, our aim is to create a world that is compassionate and empathetic to everyone who is considered different. Zyp Art Gallery provides catered volunteering experiences to those of all ages - this means that our volunteers have the opportunity to create the role that best suits their skills and their volunteering goals. We also provide defined positions that are ideally suited for those who wish to learn and grow specific skillsets, such as marketing, analytics, admin, HR, software development, etc.
