YA! is an independent artist-run space in Los Angeles that presents contemporary art through exhibitions, performance, installation, and public programs. Founded by artist Elizabeth Yochim, YA! fosters interdisciplinary practices that explore memory, place, ritual, and the human experience, creating intimate spaces where art becomes a catalyst for connection, reflection, and community.
YA! extends Elizabeth's valuation-led advisory practice into a site of direct experience, experimentation, and exchange bringing together installation, performance, and interdisciplinary collaboration.
