Nadine Khoury, a Dubai-based collector, curator, and art adviser, founded the Young Collectors Circle in 2023 to engage Millennial and Gen Z professionals in the Gulf region with contemporary art. Through studio visits, suppers with established collectors, and exhibition openings, Khoury aims to cultivate a new generation of passionate, patient collectors. She previously worked at Green Art Gallery in Dubai and runs her own art advisory firm, Nasij. The initiative grew organically via word-of-mouth and Instagram, with events limited to 15 attendees to foster intimate connections between collectors, artists, and gallerists.
