MAKASSAR  ARTS INITIATIVE MOVEMENT (MAIM) is an art awareness movement in Makassar which aspires to spread the "virus" of artistic spirit that is total, creative, maximal, and displays fresh, innovative ideas that have novelty values. This movement has great hopes that Makassar can become a field for the growth and development of a dynamic and dialectical art world.
The emphasis on the word "initiative" indicates that this movement was born from the awareness that grows from within the artist, who is ready to move dynamically to cultivate ideas and art movements independently. The power of art from the soul is a spirit for creativity to break all physical and mental stagnation.
