Grabie was founded in 2021 as a response to the growing anxiety and depression experienced during the pandemic. The founders personally discovered the healing and uplifting power of creative expression through art, inspiring them to make art more accessible and affordable for everyone.

The company is powered by an international team based in Shanghai and Los Angeles, united by a mission to encourage individuality and creativity through quality art supplies.

To extend their impact, Grabie launched the Grabie Art Fund, which donates art materials to partner organizations that support mental health and art therapy in underserved communities. Every purchase helps fund these donations, bringing the benefits of creativity to more people.
