About

Based In Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, Lkham Gallery strives to promote contemporary art and culture of the Mongolian-speaking world and the broader Central Asian region. Lkham represents both emerging and mid-career artists working in a wide range of media.

As the first gallery of its kind in Mongolia, Lkham envisions itself as an open door. Through regular exhibitions, publications, and a dynamic public program, the gallery aims to facilitate dialogue between local artists and the public, and to galvanize patronage of local artists throughout its community, the region, and beyond. Lkham also regularly hosts lectures and workshops by experts working in a variety of fields and will provide residency opportunities for local and international artists, writers, and scholars. Founded in 2022 by entrepreneur Natsagsuren Mangalam, the gallery bears the name of her grandmother.
