We go to the arts to bond as communities. And, we go to you to keep the arts going.
 
The arts carry the power to create, inform and build communities. Listen to our grantees, Anaheeta Pinto and Sumona Chakravarti, speak about their experience of making art with communities in Bangalore and Kolkata, and how it helped birth connections that rise above differences and appreciate shared spaces.
 

 

We go to the arts to listen to unheard voices. And, we go to you to keep the arts going.

The arts carry the power to break silences, make space for those who remain unseen, unheard and forgotten, and enable us to feel the world we live in today. Listen to our grantees, members of the Aravani Art Project and Ronidkumar Chingangbam aka Akhu, share their experience of giving life to stories that are often drowned by loud and dominant ways of looking at the world.

 

We go to the arts to listen to imagine collective futures. And, we go to you to keep the arts going.

The arts allow us to imagine the diverse possibilities that our futures can bring upon us and carry the power to motivate us to envisage, project and frame our collective futures. Hear what Swati Apte, IFA donor and Chanakya Vyas, IFA grantee has to say about this. 

 

We go to the arts to connect unlikely worlds. And, we go to you to keep the arts going.

The arts help us understand and connect very different experiences in life, build associations that are new and surprising, introduce abstract ways of thinking, and help us imagine the impossible. Listen to our grantees, Jyoti Dogra and Jahanara speak about their unique creative process and the connections they make through the arts.

 

We go to the arts to celebrate hope. And, we go to you to keep the arts going.

The arts carry the power to engage our whole selves in the present, celebrate the hope of a better future even during the toughest of times, and feel joyful about the little things in our lives. Hear what members of the IFA family - Puneet Pushkarna, IFA Donor and Sunil Kumar AM, IFA Grantee have to say about this.
