Region of Delhi where we are restricting our area of work, till our resources

framework for facilitation and as a point of convergence for all participants be

students in tangible exercises over short periods of time (semesters) involving
them with the performing and graphic arts, and more specifically facilitating
interaction and dialogue between students and the artists
