About us

Serendipity Arts is a not-for-profit collaborative platform based in Delhi, fostering empathy, curiosity, and cross-cultural dialogue by supporting emerging artists across South Asia. The Foundation’s aim is to nurture artistic practice, promote research, and provide sustainability and education in the field of the arts. Over the past decade, Serendipity Arts has encouraged cultural heritage projects alongside contemporary art practices with extensive residencies, grants, collaborative projects, art writing initiatives and a multi-disciplinary arts festival.

Serendipity Arts Festival, the Foundation’s primary initiative and largest outreach project, is a multi-disciplinary arts event held annually across multiple venues in Panjim, Goa. Curated by a panel of eminent artists and institutional figures, the festival is part of a long-term cultural project that hopes to catalyse positive change in the arts landscape of India on a scale that transcends geographical, linguistic, and ideological boundaries. Now in its tenth edition, the Festival stands as a testament to the transformative power of the arts. Over the years, the Festival has addressing crucial issues such as arts education, patronage culture, transdisciplinary discourse, inclusivity, and accessibility, striving to bridge the gap between the aesthetic realm and real social impact by creating a sustainable ecosystem for the arts to thrive.
