Our Vision
The Kalā Premi Foundation — a Registered Charitable Trust — has been founded with the objective of promoting awareness and appreciation of art and culture.
The Kalā Premi Foundation presents programmes of performing arts, lectures and demonstrations, etc, aimed at building a greater awareness & appreciation of Indian arts and our cultural heritage.
Our Story
Two organizations, namely Palahalli Narayana Iyengar Charities – a Charitable trust devoted to promotion of education and culture; and Vara Enterprises - an organization promoting music and literature; got together and wanted to take up purposeful activities. One concept that appealed was of promoting a greater awareness and appreciation of art and culture by nurturing art lovers with good materials, and occasions to interact with the performers of various art forms.
Discussions were held with friends, well wishers, likeminded people, eminent scholars and artists; and the feedback got from them helped us to improvise this concept. The Kalã Premi Foundation was thus born.
